Great shots. I was just reading a story this morning about someone who has been injecting venom from this and a few other viper and rattlesnake species for over 20 years. He started out doing it just to build up an immunity to the venom, but now he says that a side effect is that he hasn't been sick (e.g., cold virus, flu, etc.) in almost 10 years. It could be a coincidence (or a lie, I suppose), but it is an interesting concept nonetheless. Snake venom is used in several medications produced by major pharmaceutical companies, so it is not crazy to think that small doses over a long period of time might have some sort of benefit.

Great set Kurt! I think you managed to order them by rating. I like 1 the best and then 2, and so on. The lighting is great. The composition on 2 is nice also.

Nice detail. I want to brush that little spec of dirt off its head, but it was probably best to leave it where it was.

Great job, Kurt. Those first shots really show off the pits well, too.
