First try at Photoshoot

It's my first try at a photoshoot.

I took more shots (way more) but not everyone was cooperative, so they are not all good.

I used a chair + white tablecloth + white paper. (Quite inexpensive). And it worked well with the smaller ones. The older ones didn't fit as nicely and were less cooperative, they were trying to run more than anything else. The G. Stripe was the bigger one for who the picture didn't went too bad, she is 07 around 1200g.

I will try to take more pictures, may be tomorrow, with WAY more lights. I didn't have enough lights (don't know where to find those fixtures) and ended up doing white balance in GIMP.

So here it is :)
give me your opinion please !

I hope the others will be cooperative next time. I might try using a black background or another color to see what happens.

I dig em for sure!

ditto and the pictures turned out really well

Great photos... and gorgeous snakes! Totally digging the lesser & g-stripe in particular. :)

Only thing I'd suggest is to crop the photos, so you get more snake and less white background. Other than that, great job! I'm still working on my own photo skills... it's tough to capture the snakes just right, isn't it?

Great shots! The woma is really nice lookin, and I love the position the bino is in! ..and that lesser..wow! What kind of lighting are you using?

beautiful snakes, and great pictures too :)

The pictures turned out awesome! Very nice looking snakes as well!

Great photography skills! Are you sure its your first try? lol! Lovin that enchi of yours! :gj:

No enought light :) You never have too much lol !

I need to find more. I only used what I had around. Mostly halogen. But I really didn't had enough.

I reprocessed the pictures in GIMP to rebalance my white. The first few pictures I took with the camera wasn't too bad, but then I kept using that white setting, but I should have reset it, may be it would have work better. The problem was that I didn't had enough light, so it made some part of the light tent darker (more gray) than others.

The albino was the hardest to rebalance. The auto function didn't work well, so I had to balance it manually, and when doing this I was losing some contrast, but I think I managed to get it the best I could.

Here is the picture of that fire before I rebalanced the white in GIMP (if you don't know, it's a sort of open-source, free, version of Photoshop)
