    Ahh thanks! There's always the post-processing that goes into it though to make it look this clear and crisp, as with all photography.. I work/draw in Photoshop for a living, and my hobby photos are included. LOL

    Updates on this pastry...

    Nice upgrade and great shots!


    Don't be fooled by those saying BPs are poor climbers and really terrestrial.

    Elvira is an EXCELLENT climber, wow! Especially for appearing so heavy.
    I'm 100% sure that Cake would not be able to do that... LOL. He falls on his heavy butt so easily, like he doesn't have a solid sense of weight and balance.

    Orochimaru likes to pretend he's an arboreal snake too. He has even struck, wrapped, and swallowed prey from a perch. Your pictures always make me want to find my actual camera. I don't think I've used it since the photography segment of journalism when I was in high school.

    That's really neat. He's the real Orochimaru (ha..ha). I can't imagine Cake doing something like that at all.

    Ahhh find your camera! Photography and the post-processing that goes with it is so impulsive and creative? It's a good thing to get back into. A big backing part of my daily fun in reptiles is the photography (weirdly).

    I don't know how much different an albino ball is from an albino leopard gecko but I used to have leopard geckos when I was a child. My albino had horrible depth perception and usually had to be practically hand fed before the other geckos ate all the crickets. Just knowing this and how horrible its eye site was it makes me wonder if your albino ball has bad depth perception/equilibrium stuff going on.

    That's interesting! It's very possible that Cake also has skewed perception, or something related. I actually did suspect before that he had something like that going on, because he occasionally displays the typical "spider wobble", despite not being a spider. Shaking his head/neck when it's held up, his head going in loops when he's trying to move down off my hand, etc.

    This was Cake deep in "blue", and his colors lighten significantly. I guess the shed could have affected him too, but you can see him totally looping (shot in sequence).

    Ya that's strange I wonder if it's common in albinos. I decided to stay away from them as far as my breeding efforts go just because I like to use uvb lighting hoping it would help them grow and develop quicker and I was afraid I would give albinos cataracts.
