    Laziness is nothing more than the habit of resting before you get tired.

    Second picture has flash on and will distort color. Since you have bought him can you get pictures of him in natural light. The main reason I call pastel s I would expect a firefly's yellow to pop and that one just has nice pastel yellow

    Very nice pictures. Lots better in natural lighting can see color better. After looking at these pics I will amend my pastel to probable Firefly or a super nice pastel ( I know that may not help much but I don't like to over shoot. It's most likely a firefly). Still doesn't have the yellow I would expect from a firefly but there can be variation. Lots of blush I couldn't see in the darker pics or with the flash ( flash is horrible for trying to identify as it distorts the color)
