Artsy Fartsy...

Playing with new equipment- this isn't my usual style but I thought it was kind of cool.

Set up for this one:

Hand held Speedlite 580exII with Lumiquest Big Bounce diffuser to the left of the snake.
Flash triggered with Opteka TTL Flash Cord.
Shot on black velvet in a room with the lights off.

That's COOL Aaron!

Thanks! Here's another from the same set...

Awww man! I LOVE that shot. I've said it before - you really should consider turning some of these into posters and marketing them. I've got a series you did last year up as my screensaver at work - I may have to change to this second one - it's so cool!

I totally love that first pic, nice job!

Those are just stunning. If you vend at reptile expos, you should have some of those in frames backing up your table. If you vend at art / photography shows, you should have 'em right out front!

Gorgeous photos! I love the second shot especially...

Spinner, right?

I really like the way you got his head and tongue on that shot. What camera do you use?

I completely agree!
That first one is crazy! Do you have more?

Wow, getting tongue shots with the lights out. You should play the lottery! :D

Nice photos!!

That head shot is just stunning. You really could sell these as posters.

Great pics...love that first one. :)

I agree. I like both.... but really like that first one :D

I am LOVING these pictures, especially the second one.

Wow! I love these!

Awesome! :gj:

I think that is totally cool. I would put that first one on my wall...definetly!!

Thanks for all the nice comments! I will definitely consider making a few prints of these.


Ouroboros: The camera is a Canon 500D aka rebel T1i and yep, he's a spinner. I wanted to use something with spider genes to get the nice light Iris tone.


Thanks again! I hope to have some cool photos coming in December!

Oh if you do please let me know....I am serious!!! I love the first one and really do want it on my wall!!
