It will be worth it though. Great hobby to have.
Oh I know.. And first I want to get a small rack system (looking for something that doesnt take much space for now and only has 2-5 bins (which would be fine for awhile). I still cant believe Ive become addicted to BP morphs after such a short time.
I already am having dreams of Axanthic Pinstripes and Axanthic Tri-strips (if even possible) dancing through my head :D

Hmm, you might be right. I was under the impression that Apollo was the Moon god until around the 3rd century when they took Helios (who is the sun god) and merged to two into "apollo helios" which strictly became the sun god with the sister taking over as moon goddess.
But I could have sworn pre-3rd century, Apollo was the moon god.
I am a HUGE mythology buff (but admittingly know alot more about Norse Mythology then geek/roman).
Ill have to do some research to see which of us is correct. Hopefully im right so I dont have to change his name.. I love Apollo :D

Axanthic Pinstripe
Lemon Blast
KingPins (i love those!)

Practice, read/watch tutorials, and read that manual to become more acquainted with the camera and you'll be shooting like a maniac in no time! :D
Thanks for the compliments. I am pretty familiar with the camera, but I am not familiar with working with extension tubes very much. It was my first real attempt at using them. Makes finding the focus range a pain in the butt since the depth of field is so large.
Thanks guys! :D :snake:

Well damn, I think you maybe right.
What the hell am I gonna do now? Lmao... Name of a sun god for a snake that hates the sun? lmao...
Guys think I should stick with the name, or switch it to one of the following?
Jormungand (Serpent from Norse Mythology that is so large he circles the entire earth, chasing his own tail).
Nyx (Goddess of the Night, known for great power and beauty)
Artemis (Goddess of the Hunt and Wilderness)
Apollo (I believe he too was a god of Hunting.. So that could still work)
Yes, I know I am pretty dorkified with wanting the name to actually represent an element of ball pythons. Gives it some character tho i think lol...
Thoughts?
