    kind of special I would say. I have never seen a yellow snake before. I think you captured the difference between the yellow and the white of his skin beautifuly. Very nice!

    I think she would eat rats like popcorn...more of a rabbit snake rolleyes1.gif

    I just looked her up she's a "Burmese python, named Daisy. She is an amelanistic animal - a genetic mutation keeps her body from producing melanin, which creates a dark color, although she can produce the yellow color. Daisy is about 16 feet long and weighs 108 pounds."

    very pretty - although I think I would have liked to see her face. I really like the way you got the colors and the detail of the scales. She is very pretty. Nice job.

    What a cool photo! I like snakes, but I prefer brown ones like ball pythons. Just like the color better though.:D I actually got to take care of one for a week at summer camp one year!

    annabella, love the snake photo, and I hate snakes! I actually had wallpaper kind of that color. I had it in the forties as a toddler, one of my first memories, looking at, and loving, that wallpaper, so I am partial to your photo.

    Also, I think it is very well composed!

    After all is said and done, it is the sweet tea.

    Love it! Great colors. I like how your eyes follow the lines of the body until you get to the head.
