    Different white background

    Ive been trying to come up with a nice background for taking pics of my Albino, for most of my other snakes, I use white melamine, but I dont like the white on white with the Albino, and everyone and their little brother is using black these days, Im looking for something a little different than the norm....here the first one I tried last week, its still white melamine, but I created some shadows to give it a shady/grey look to it, let me know what you think...he should shed tomorrow, at which time Im going to try some different textures, Im thinking crushed velvet will look really nice......

    Wow! That's a beautiful shot! I think that's one of the best albino head-shots I've ever seen!

    Re: Different white background

    Nice lookin pic, I do like how there is some contrast with the shading, i think abinos and pieds that are really light colored need plenty of contrast to show how bright they are really are! The shading in that picture works well! Awsome pic.

    Re: Different white background

    the eye looks cool in that pic. if your camera allows, try adjusting exposure or metering(spot metering) or using different amounts of flash.

    my favourite thing about his eye, is at the top where you can see the yellow head stripe continues straight through the eye and Vaughn, I know my camera has those metering options, but Im not sure if I can adjust the flash like that, Ive only ever read about half the manual LOL I'll have to look into that

    Re: Different white background

    I love the detail in the eye, amazing.


    It is definitely hard to get good albino pics, and frustrating too.

    That one would get my vote for BPOM.
