Took this shot at the Niagara Fall Aviary, using the available light from the overhead heat lamps. Thought the shadows made a nice pic.

    Very nice. The shadows really add to the sense of texture. You can almost feel the scales.... well, maybe not :uhoh

    Direct overhead lighting does not usually work out that well, but it does seem to work for snakes and lizards at times. Nice shot.
