Malachai, my striped Cali King getting out after a shed. His color is always so nice and shiny after he sheds! He is a real firecracker to handle too.
My snakes are fast becoming favorite subjects of mine to photograph. I think they are unique, although I believe some people may vote this down if they are not fond of them. This particular tree usually offers a good background with bokeh. I got lucky today and the light was right.

Awesome shot again from you, and yes, I really love the "Bokeh" on this one, just perfect as usual.....
You have some magical images of your precious snakes in your portfolioo and I for one love looking at them.....

nice bokeh. should have finished higher, just for the technicals. i imagine it was the composition and the flaring that let you down. all the same, not bad for this crowd.

Nice, dynamic composition. I like the "Z" created by the snake's body. Beautiful snake and great BOKEH! I'm seeing some artifacts, but not too bad.

wow, what a beautiful photo, maybe a landscape orientation could really bring it out, but it's still a 9 how it is
