I have been playing with my digital camera trying to figure out just what everything is and what it all does. Turns out the more light the better with certain settings. It's really just a good excuse to enjoy my snakes. Here's a few I selected but I will admit I needed to use aditional software (Photoshop Elements) to assist in presenting better pictures. Enjoy!!!

Now for Oakely. He is the only one in my small '06 collection that has colored up with lots of yellow already.

I really need to get my tri-pod working for me, next time, and it's obvious that more light is needed to take advantage of the higher F-stop numbers with adequate shutter speeds due to the snakes always moving.

It was fun and a great learning experience. If you have any suggestions feel free to advise.
