Outdoors reptile pictures.

[marvelfreak]

I took each of my snake outside (one at a time) yesterday an got some pics. That got me thinking outdoor pics would be a cool thread. So let's see them pictures if you got any. Here's some of mine.

The tree is a 15 foot crabapple. It doesn't get any bigger and i got 12 foot step ladder. The branch i was taking picture from is only 3 feet off the ground. I was a my knees to make it look like they where higher up.

[marvelfreak]

Nice pics Wayne. It's cool to see how easy they blend into the back ground. Here's some more. 9162

[Lankyrob]

They all look so beautiful with the sunlight on them - maybe some day i will be brave enough to do it!!

[marvelfreak]

I also had a friend there to help if they try to get away. The only one that try to make a break was my diamond x jungle, and that was in the grass. (didn't get more than 3 feet and i had him) My three carpet and ball seem to really like being in the tree. My borneo just sat there.

[Will0W783]

Have you guys ever had snakes pick up mites from being outside? I had a mite outbreak shortly after I took some snakes outside two years ago, but I think it might have been from a rescue snake I took in. I was just wondering if anyone thinks mites might be a risk if taking snakes outside to play in the grass and trees?

[infernalis]

I never picked up any mites taking my snakes outside. But then again it's not real common, I took my corn outside once (all those photos are from the same day) the ball python has been outside 4 times in 2 years, They move so slow that there is little risk of your snake getting away.

I'm not adventurous enough to put any of my garter snakes on the ground, they are too fast and can get away quickly.

[Will0W783]

Yeah, garters are quick little buggers. Most colubrids are pretty quick-moving things, except for my file snakes. They just amble along without a care in the world. lol

[infernalis]

The one that always scared me the most was Limon... He was arboreal and could have made it interesting trying to recover him from that tree.

http://www.mypetforums.com/limon/limon1.jpg

[Hillsberry]

Wayne that snakes is beautiful!

[marvelfreak]

To answer the mite question. This was the first time i ever let them go in the grass or tree. I haved them outside before but was always holding them or they were on something up off the ground. I did mist each one down lightly, and wipe them down with paper towels before putting back in their cages as a precaution. To make sure there wasn't anything on them. The outdoor picures are always the coolest IMO. Even if your just holding them. Natural sunlight really makes their cooler pop. So if you have any show them off. Please!:yes:

[Lankyrob]

If we ever get any decent warm days i will take ours outside and hold them whilst wifey takes some pics!!

[marvelfreak]

That be cool Rob. Can't wait to see your pics. We've only had three day over 75 degree so this year that i even dare take them out.

[infernalis]

the two warmest days we have had, Chomper was the one to go out.

He genuinely needs the exercise after spending all winter cooped up in his enclosure.

[shaunyboy]

amazing pictures folks,i can see this turning into a sticky thread.your developing quite a nack for picking subject matters marvelfreak.thats one cool spooky looking barn you have there infernalis.we had hailstones falling this afternoon so sadly it may take a while before i can contibute to this thread,haha

The colours and patterns of the snakes really stand out beautifully against the natural background - fantastic thread that will run forever me thinks!

That why i started this thread so we could show off our camara skills and see some wicked pics. The sunlight and natural background make the best looking pictures IMO. With summer around the corner i think we're going to be seeing some really beautiful pics.

[infernalis]

I sure hope so. My lawn is ready for the first mow, freshly mowed spring grass makes a terrific background for photos.

LMAO!! It's about 15celsius and raining here today!! Not bad for "Summertime"!!!!

[infernalis]

here in New York, we can experience all 4 seasons in one day!

Night time - snow flurries (winter)
early morning - foggy and chilly (spring)
afternoon - hot & humid (summer)
evening - chilly and cloudy (autumn)

One of the few places you run the furnace at night and the air conditioner by day.

[marvelfreak]

I am ready for all the rain to stop. It'll be warm and sunny during day, then rain almost every other night. Elmwood which is about 7 miles from here (farmington) was hit by a tornado 4 or 5 night ago. Took out almost the whole downtown (about 3 blocks). When they sounded the warning siren here i was on my front porch and actually seen it pass here about 2 mile outside of town. Luckly know one was hurt, because most of the town was downtown for their Strawberry Festibal. With all the rain and sun the humidity in my Snakes room stay at 69% to 82%. The room temp been staying between 75 to 89 so i turned all the heatpads off for now. Just flip them on for 4 days after feeding. I feed every 14 days. Anyway can't wait to see some of your guys reptile outdoors. I also got some really good headshots i am going to post in a day or two. P.S. wayne chomper with the boot looks like me after a hard night partying.

[infernalis]

was that the same one that tore up Toledo??

[shaunyboy]

your wee brb and your diamond/jungle are colouring up very nicely mate.tornado's whizzing past your house must be one scary thing to experience.its incredible the force some of these can put out.ive seen it plenty of times on my tv but to actually be there in person .....!!!

chomper looking his best as always mate.

[shaunyboy]

im sitting here speechless mate.the power it would take to tip a train like that must be massive.it tipped it over like it was a kids toy.the way it just came from no where makes it very,very scary stuff...!!

although you live in a wonderfull place there are obviously a few dangers you all have to contend with.wolves,bears,tornado's to name but a few.imo i still think it would be worth it though to get to live how you all live.i'm assuming you all have emergency plans set in place.like a safe bunker for tornado's and your 20 guage shot gun for scary wildlife.that clip just reminds you how powerfull good old mother nature can be.mindblowing stuff...!!
cheers shaun

[infernalis]

Where I live we never see tornado's, there are too many mountains and hills to allow a tornado to form.

Their is a portion of the Midwest called "Tornado ally" that has NO hills, so Tornado's are a regular occurrence.

[marvelfreak]

was that the same one that tore up Toledo?? I am not sure. Think it was a different one.

[infernalis]

Dorothy (my sweetie) moved here from Toledo, we got a call from her brother Monday, the place got hit bad.

[Nafun]

An f4 went through just south of here about 5 years ago.
About 9 years ago, I physically got hit by a tornado. It touched down about 2/3 of a mile away and went right over the house while I was in it. No warning, just FOOM! I was on the second floor, it was like trying to walk in a earthquake.
About 18 years ago a tornado too the trailer next door (twisted the frame into a helix), the barn across the road, and then tore right through the back yard.

Now I live in town, and I feel safer. I know I'm not safer, I'm just as likely to be hit by a tornado whether I live in town, or live in the country, but the ape inside my subconscious believes in safety in numbers.

[marvelfreak]

I am not sure. Think it was a different one.Just found out it was the same one. After Elmwood it touch down in Streator IL, then again in Toledo. It was one bad as- storm front did all kinds of damage at one point there were siting of 3 different tornados in a 8 mile area.

I'd like to take mine outside, but the neighbors around here are a bit.....prickish. The one time I took my Adult Bp out on my porch some neighbors got freaked and called my landlord. :angry:

[marvelfreak]

those are some great shots chuck!
Thanks Sean! When are we going to see some of your on here? hint,hint I bet you BRB would look awesome in some outdoor shot. Sunlight always makes their color really pop. Presspirate that sucks. I am lucky I have six foot hedges on both side of my house. Plus i got really cool neighbors. Also i am freind with the Cheif of Police. He knows all about my snake and as long as i don't ever bring one around him he as no problem with me having them. lol

[Coffee Black]

i like seeing the BPs outside because they are actually DOING SOMETHING.

ive been checking on him and hes just about to shed, i'll give him a few more days and he should be all fresh and clean, i think so too, the iridescence from the sunlight is just amazing! ive been waiting to get some nice shots of him all week!!! lol :P

[BrandyMom2aFew]

I have been lurking around in old posts and love the colors when you are out in natural light. So I went outside today.

Here is Benny all stretched out.. I measured him this morning he is a nice 28" long now :D

And an amazing head shot (IMO anyways :p)

http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/brandymom2afew/017-1.jpg

Now show me yours! (please)

[Pythonian]

his patterns are amazing O_O

[BrandyMom2aFew]

Sad thing is he is a 15$ reptile store find with tank, accessories and a free mouse cost us a total of 40$ so I have no clue his lineage. I of course want him to be het xxxx but as far as I know and was told, he is normal and came with his feeding and shed history...

I really love his patterns and coloring but, his attitude is the my favorite.

[percey39]

Great photos he looks like he is thoroughly enjoying his time in the sun light

[infernalis]

Sorry for the thread merge, but we have a long running "natural light" photo thread ;)

Does it always have a pinkish glow to it or is it from the sunlight?

[infernalis]

The pink is the snakes blood. The lack of pigment makes them kinda transparent.

It's sick watching the babies eat, you can see the food through them.

[NennaMeerkat]

I will totally get some pictures of my Bearded, KyJinn, ASAP out and about. He enjoys his time outside, really stimulates his appetite as well. Its always fun to watch him scuttle around and he loves for me to chase him. Will come running up to my feet only to turn right around and run away. He will do this over and over again until I begin to follow/chase him. Such a character.

So yeah pics coming soon.

If this year is anything like previous years, I will have plenty of little snows to photo/video eating.
