WWWOOOOWWW!!! The third is so amazing ! They ALL are!!!

WOW! :O Gorgeous! Is that an Aru? Where did you get him/her?

Thanks! Yes, he is an Aru-type....I got him from a local friend, but he originally came from Ben Siegel as a baby.

Nice example of a quality Aru!


-Jason

How's his temperment? Does he mind being handled?
(Sorry bout all the questions; I'm looking into getting a GTP :P)

No problem at all. :)

He is extremely docile. Its like having a green arboreal Ball Python lol. I can handle him with no problems at all. Talk about the perfect GTP (I'm a little biased lol). :D

Cool stuff! :)

Another question for anyone who knows: how much do yearling Arus generally go for?

Yearling Arus, depending on where you get them, possible bloodline, origin and whatnot can go for anywhere from $300-600.

Ok, cool, that's affordable. :P

Thanks for taking the time to answer questions- now back on topic!
I don't want to be a hijacker! :D

That's a gorgeous snake and great pics. I'd say your camera works great. What kind of camera did you get anyway?

It'll still be a while until I'm in the market to get another good Digital Camera. I didn't own the other one too long (long story but I didn't break it, someone lost it for me).

Thanks! I got a Canon Powershot S3 IS....basically the next best thing an SLR.

Heres a few more.....(can you tell I like taking pics of this snake? lol)

WOW that cam is so vivid (and the amazing snake doesn't hurt hahaha) I definitely want to get one of those snakes in a few years (you should breed him or her and sell me one) ;] hahahaha

i never really had a desire to own GTP's, but ever since i saw my first Aru i had a very quick change of heart... that said, yours is one of the nicest i've seen! great pics

awesome pics and beautiful snake wish i could find one around here where i live i would have to buy it in a heart beat

Beautiful GTP and great pics...

Great pics! Cool to see another Mac user as well (those darn PC's). :cool:

Thanks everyone! Glad you enjoyed the pics. :)

And yeah, Macs rule. :P

David,

Those pics with the blue background: did you create a light box, or is it just the color of the room? Did you use a flash or rely on sunlight pouring in?

Absolutely stunning snake, David. You're putting that new camera to good use!
