I agree, it's better if it's not too easy.

Re: The September Photo & Caption comments thread.

After I fed my new concinnus last night I saw them yawn for times (not each, between the two of them!) So I expect to get a decent yawning photograph this weekend.

I missed a brilliant opportunity, my eastern black neck was on top of her hide in a classic garter pose with her head raised up and she did a great yawn, i was so annoyed that i didnt have the camera near by.

Re: The September Photo & Caption comments thread.

My camera is not fast enough. By the time I press the shutter button, it hesitates, then goes off, the snake has closed its mouth!

Is your camera capable of taking series of pictures with one button press?

Re: The September Photo & Caption comments thread.

No, sadly, I lack that feature.

I will check my husband's camera.
