February 2007 Photo and Caption Comments Thread

Let's make general comments about either the caption contest or the photo contest in this thread. This will cut down on the amount of chit-chat between contest entries. Have fun,
Rick

My male is shedding right now, but he's 155km away. The female will be shedding in a couple of weeks. Maybe sooner, the amounts she has been eating lately.

Just wait until somebody picks 'mating' or 'giving birth'. That ought to cause a couple of annoyed grunts.

Wow, what a great time to pick this theme. I came home today and lo'and'behold, she's got blue eyes today and very very dull looking. Getting ready to shed again, horray! I can enter the contest now. Now I must go take some pictures.

Stephan- I'm sorry your snake is so far away, but I agree can't wait to see the matin or giving birth month. It will definately be interesting.

Brittany,
Congrats on figuring out how to get those great close-ups. You're going to be a real force in the competitions. Can't wait to see your next entry in mid-shed .

Cazador,
That picture was my favorite out of the ones I took today.Thank you for the compliment, I appreciate it.
I can't wait to come home to her shedding. I'll be keeping a close watch for the next couple days.

Re: February 2007 Photo and Caption Comments Thread

Okay... I have to confess that I didn't think this month's contest would be nearly as interesting as the ones we've had in the past, but man was I wrong! I was just flipping back though all of the pictures today, and there are some really cool entries. I wanted to share this photo as well. It's not part of the contest, but I thought it was cool. Take care,
Rick

You might have had my vote to, just because I've always wanting to take a picture while shedding and never could. I've even almost never saw my snakes shed
