Whats up with the spinnerblast???? No tongue shot!?!?

Just kidding, great pictures as usual. Love the black background ones the best.

Hey everyone! I felt like I hadn't posted anything in awhile so I took a couple shots today and grabbed a couple from earlier in the week. With Tinley Park coming up this weekend, provided that I am not lazy, I hope to have some cool new photos up sometime next week! Hope to see some of you there.

If you'd like to see some of my other recent photos, please click the flickr link in my signature!
















For those who will ask:

Camera setup-
Canon Rebel T1i
Tamron 28-75 f/2.8 (Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro is no more Let me know if anyone is selling one!)
Canon Speedlight 580exII w/StoFen Omnibounce Diffuser (for black) Fong Cloud LightSphere (for white)
Background is black velvet or white poster board


Thanks for looking!

How do you like the T1i? I have an XSI was wondering is their a rational reason to upgrade to the T1i.

I think the main difference that you're going to find between the xsi and the t1i and the HD video function and that newer image processor (Digic IV instead of III) There is also a few mega pixel difference but the video is the big one. If you're the type of person who doesn't care about the video function, I might look at something like a 50D instead since they are down under $1000 now and have some advantages over the t1i.

Here's is a video that I put together with footage from my t1i and my brother's SD970

Gorgeous snakes and great shots! I love the tongues! I get so frustrated when I try to get a decent tongue shot.

Awesome vid & BTW, you wouldn't believe how big that Pewter I got from you is getting. She's an awesome snake.

Thanks... The jury is still out on the video function. I still like the idea of a dedicated camera for video. I thought they also made some upgrades to the screen. To be honest I'm happy for the most part with the xsi, I would upgrade if there were marked performance advantages but for just a few megapixes IDK.
