AWESOME photoshoot of Belle (DUW)

She shed yesterday all in one piece. i was so amazed at how these pictures came out. i honestly don't know how to work the camera, it's my dads, so alot of them are really blurry. the light tent is a little shady, i only had 2 lamps. i hope this clears up alot of confusion about her true colors. i put a few props in there for color and size comparison. let me know if the pictures are "off" or misleading, i'm no photographer, but i thought these looked pretty darn good.

i tried really hard to get a picture of her eye, it has a glare on it but you can see a tiny bit of color if you look hard. in person they look brown. they remind me of dinosaur eyes. this first one is the truest picture of her, as you can tell by the backdrop. i couldn't tell it on the camera so i have no idea what the setting was on.

Beautiful :)

She is very pretty. I love the first pic.:)

Very pretty girl. I always love how crisp they look right after a good shed.

The last is the best photo. Have you tried using the flash?

Great photos!!! thats a really pretty pastel!!! :gj: the blush on that girl is amazing.

Pretty snake.. nice color.

Great photos of Belle.

Definitely interesting, natural light, or white light bulbs show color the best. :gj:

Great photos, that first one is really nice. What's the verdict on the morph? Normal or pastel? :confused: Or are you still unsure

all signs say she is normal. no green eyes, her belly isn't even completely clean. i'd have to breed her out to officially find out. but she def is a gifted normal imo. eventually she could even brown out again. we'll just have to see.

thanks for the comments everyone!!!:gj:

the flash?! that hadn't even occured to me since i was using the light tent. it was made out of pillowcases and leftover fabric. it was totally ghetto rigged. i proped everythign up using a ladder since i had no pvc pipes. i knew it wasn't going o come out perfect.

i've got some learning ahead of me :P thanks for the advice.

what would be a good but affordable snake to breed her to, to try and prove her out?

Well, you could always get a nice bright pastel male to breed her to. Then the worst thing that happens if she doesn't prove to be a pastel is you've got a chance at making some nice light looking pastel babies that should have some really nice blushing and color! And if she does prove to be a pastel well then you'll have a chance at getting some supers! If you want to be really scientific about it though breeding her to a normal would be the best way to tell for sure if she is or is not a pastel.

pretty! i love her colour (form what i can see)

Since she is definitely not a pastel (no matter how many times the inexperienced mention the idea), I would agree that a pastel is the obvious choice for a mate.
It seems in the first pic her colour is messed up, but almost like she is losing and gaining patches. You may want to look into getting your rats from a different place for a while to see if that changes anything.
