Repticon Atlanta 2010

Sorry if this isn't the correct place to post these. Most are ball pics, with a few other things thrown in. If it's not the right place, sorry in advance.

I got to meet Bill Love who shoots for Reptile Magazine and he did a sweet presentation on how to photograph poisonous snakes which was really cool. Overall I really enjoyed the event, it's definitely an impulse buyers worst nightmare. On the advice of a friend I purposely only brought enough cash to get in and maybe for a soda. That was the best advice I got!! I wanted to buy everything. I also want to thank Trey at Fireballpythons.com for being really cool and allowing me to take out some of the morphs and shoot some pictures of them, I really appreciate that! Anyway here are some pics!

Overall I had a great time. I didn't take a lot of pics of the crested geckos or leopard geckos as I wasn't as interested in them apparently LOL.

Amazing photographs! What kind of camera are you using?

Thank you. I shoot on a D90 and was using a 50mm 1.8f for most of those pictures. The ones of the Cobras and the Rattlesnake were on my 70-300mm. I've been doing photography for about a year now, and I really appreciate the compliment. :)

Picture 9 is of a green tree python neonate, not an amazon tree boa.

You're welcome.

I think I saw you taking pictures at Trey's table. I was the girl with the dark glasses waiting on the spider. :) You have some amazing photos! Love them!

Ah yes, you had the pastel I believe, and then you picked up the spider from Trey. Thanks, I appreciate the compliment. :gj:
