My dad bought a new toy

It's a new objective, so I had to test it

He bought the Canon - EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM

I want to take a picture from this bunch for the contest, anybody willing to help me with it

The first pictures are from elegans terrestris 'red morph', although apparently this genus does not exist anymore...

Re: My dad bought a new toy

Then the concinus, they are very willing to pose for me
The first one is a female and she hasn't eaten for 2 weeks now. I'm hoping the best of it!


Their favorite hiding place.

The green and red one together.

And the red concinnus certainly was posing very nicely.

Their pattern.

Male and female .

And I'm also seeing this again, like almost whole previous year... which does not make me so optimistic about them

Re: My dad bought a new toy

And the last one's. My 'you'll never take a picture of me, I'm way to quick for you' hammondii. The only picture that I could take without taking her out and that's because she did not know were to go

And a small close-up of atratus, just after shedding.


So hopefully we'll find a good canditate for the contest

I like the first picture of the two cyrtopsis together best.
Beautiful snakes by the way, Hans.
