Beautiful!! Scary...but beautiful :gj:

Gosh, cobras give me chills. They are one of the most beautiful creatures on the planet, but they just have a chilling presence. There is an eerie intelligence in their eyes. I see why so many cultures worship them. Gorgeous creatures.

Stunning :D.

"Go ahead, touch me... if you can."

I always call cobra's "the velociraptors of the snake world" because of that part in Jurassic Park when the Australian guy says "They show extraordinary intelligence, even problem-solving intelligent. Especially the big one... That one... when she looks at you, you can see she's working things out."

Scary stuff, beautiful shots though!

I have a forest cobra that is extremely intelligent. I take her out a box so to show the audience. I then make sure the Forrest spots the box and put her down. She goes around the box till she finds the entrance hole.
I call her Pandora

Those are snakes I am definately scared of! I like looking at them and I am in awe of them, but I prefer to keep my distance!

You keep them at your house??

Very nice photos. Are you ever afraid that they will get away having them outside like that?

I prefer working outside. Open space is far better
