    My First Ball Python!

    Meet Apollo! Named after the Moon God, which I thought was fitting.

    Had the little guy (or girl?) from about a month now. Ate a few times for me (switched to F/T from live quickly) so I decided to take him out for a bit.

    I also decided to do a quick photo shoot with my new camera (Canon XSI Rebel). Didnt get too many good pics because I'm still learning the camera + lens + extension tube workflow. This was more of a camera test but I thought I'd share anyway.





    Canon Rebel XSI - 55-250mm lens - extension tube(s)

    Let me know what you think!

    Thanks.

    PS- I want 1435987 more now..

    4 Pygocentrus Nattereri (Red belly Piranhas)

    I've spent thousands on my fish hobby alone its a little scary thinking about how much I'll be spending now that I'm getting into the world of herps.

    A very nice looking snake! I'd have to agree with you on the name; it suits 'him' perfectly And ya got some pretty decent pics with that new camera! Practice, read/watch tutorials, and read that manual to become more acquainted with the camera and you'll be shooting like a maniac in no time!

    He's not evil...just misunderstood.
