May 2008 Photo and Captions Comments Thread

Let's make general comments about this month's photo and caption competitions here, to keep the competition threads free of general talk.

Re: May 2008 Photo and Captions Comments Thread

I think Tore has chosen a great topic this month.... a chance for all our US members to take some awesome 'field shots' of Garters swimming in their natural habitat!
Of course, Garters swimming in their water bowls is fine too. I expect we'll see some really good photos this month!

Ooh, I hadn't thought of outdoor shots...maybe I could take mine outside to my watergarden...alas, the waterlilies won't bloom in time, but the water hawthorne is blooming...some possibilities are presenting themselves!

Re: May 2008 Photo and Captions Comments Thread

The photo theme for this month is really hard for all only indoor keepers.
I wonder that I´m not able to build the planed outdoor enclosure within three weeks, so i have to find a setup for an eligable indoor shot.

I think if you can get a shot of your snake swimming in it's water bowl, that would be quite acceptable.
