I was trying to take a photo of one of my more nippy young ball pythons. Every time I snapped a flash photo she would strike at me. I would take a flash photo every 3 seconds as the battery charged up. I took 5 photos and avoided 5 strikes. Then I stopped to check my camera-three seconds later on cue with the timing for the sixth photo she struck and took me by surprise and latched onto my hand. She may have predicted the sixth photo or she may have just needed 3 seconds to recover between strikes...either way I laugh when I look at the fifth photo (shown below).
