Cake freshly shed AND new camera.

[redshepherd]

Awesome animal and a must have. I will be in the market for a high comtrast albino male also. Which breeder did you acquire Cake from?

I got him from someone at Breeder's Circle in Florida! Her name is Tiffany Mercedes Barzaga. I'm honestly not sure how she is associated with Breeder's Circle, how many breeders there are IN that group, and how they work together... But a healthy and pretty BP is a good breeder, I suppose.

The high contrast is really nice! Invest in a fast lens (low f stop number) for your camera. I use a Canon Rebel and have two lenses that I really like for snake pictures. The first is a Canon 50 mm f1.4, which on a cropped sensor camera is closer to a 75 mm lens. It is really good for taking pictures of babies and more artistic shots (when you want to get the bokeh, or background blur). The lens I have been using the most with my camera is a Sigma 17-50 mm f2.8 lens. The wide angle side of the lens with a large aperture produces some great pictures. Enjoy your guy and new camera!

Definitely, the lens I'm using now is actualyl the 50 mm f/1.4 for Nikon. I'm planning on just using this for most of my photography now, until I get some more $$$ saved up. That lens was expensive. Throws money off a cliff. And thanks! This camera is amazing already. ;;

Cake!

I didn't reply on his intro thread, but I can't pass up an opportunity to say how gorgeous he is! He looks even more adorable since he's shed.

Thanks! He's definitely super beautiful and glorious right now after shedding- I feel like more shimmery and saturated than when I first received him in the package. 8-8 Beauty boy.
