love the second... great shots

[silvex]

WOW!! What kind of praying mantids are you mutating... :shock: .... :D I would probably straighten the first. Both are great. The first one is a great shot...it just makes you wonder what it is ...the second one I know is one of your new "mutated" mantids...:)

Is the close-up the corn snake? The second one is an amazon tree boa. Both can make calm, handlable snakes if treated right :)

Beautiful photos - I spend most of my time photographing snakes, they make excellent subjects! Wish my photos were as nice as yours though...

well im sure if they where my snakes i would get better shots because i would have time to get them when there chilled out..taking them out of there tanks and disturbing them just makes for a nightmare phototshoot..most of them shots where taking when the snake was moving.i dont like snakes that much tho to keep them..there not my thing

shots where taking with
canon 400d
mt-24ex
50mm
65mm mpe
