Description Dot had her first shed today, so I wanted to take some pictures that accented her beautiful rosy colors. I also wanted to give her a chance to shine in the spotlight by herself since Zot tends to steal all the photos.

That is teh cutest snake in the world. Too bad I can't get one in Australia. We've got pretty much every other kind.

We've got big deadly snakes and some cool lizards like the Lace Monitor Frill Neck and Bearded Dragons.

It's ot one of the only places in the world with more venomous snakes than nonvenomous? I met a girl from Australia that freaked out when I picked up a snake here because she was so used to every snake being dangerous there.

I would chase bearded dragons all day I think!

theres a Zot and a Dot! Wowies! It is true cuteness comes in pairs ^_^ Umm...I had a humble sugestion...i know that it isint right to tell a photographer what to shoot and stuff (unless your paying i guess)but i was got this idea why not take a picture of Zot and Dot interwined together?i know its so cliche but it just springed into my head.

I was thinking something like the first one.Maybe have them both wrap around a rose or something like that.Both of those pic kick ass by the way.Zot and Dot are so cute.

Well dear, I have to be honest with you. When it comes to snakes, I usually run away screaming with my arms on the air
But when I look to your models and their pictures... It's curious to see that it doesn't happen!

I don't know if it's because of the wonderful colours on their skin, or just because they aren't looking directly at me - which would scare me to death - but maybe it's because they're one monitor away from me

As for the photo... Lovely composition!
The way the subject(s) are placed on the diagonal fills this one with harmony, and the most interesting thing to see is the way Dot pops out of the background/flower due to her colours.

Lovely focus and lovely timing - I do like it!

I am the same way with spiders--they really creep me out even when it is just a photo on my computer monitor!

I just wondered what you would think of this since it is probably my favorite snake photo so far. Thank you for commenting!

Thank you!!! Have you checked out *HogWild yet? It's a club I started for hognose snakes lovers We totally need more members and submissons for artwork and photos if you are interested!

syntheticdream In reply to HeatherTelesca [2006-03-31 05:22:17 +0000 UTC]

yep, I followed the directions for joining. Hognoses are so cute I'm so lucky to have mine, a few years ago I was long-term snakesitting for someone (he got into legal troubles and had to go into community housing or something) and among his many snakes was a tiny baby hognose.. when he was able to take his snakes back, he let me keep the hognose. and she's such a sweetheart!! (she used to be a brat lol) It's so interesting how individual snakes have their own distinct personality. oops sorry, I ramble a lot
