What morph is my new adopted ball python? Fire/pastel/normal? Something else?

Oh geez, I saw jmcrooks pics and wasn't paying attention to who posted and though it was OP's. Oops!

It depends on the morph you are trying to identify, but the top of the head is important for a lot of them. Having a good side view of the head that includes the back portion where the stripes meet the neck is really helpful for others. Then as much side pattern as you can manage on either side of the body with the snake as straight as possible helps view pattern best, but a good top view helps see the dorsal striping well too. In the case of this particular snake, the top of the head would be most helpful.

Thanks again for all of your help.
Here is a head pic - I know it’s not the best, so if it doesn’t help you confirm your suspicions about morph, then I will get a better photo! Thanks again

That fading that's visible especially toward the back of the head and starts to spread down the sides of the neck looks very Pastel to me.

Looks pretty Pastel seeing the head and different lighting showing color better.
