I wanted to make a new avatar for some of the forums that I frequent, so I took a bunch of close up photos of some of my collection. I ended up getting quite a few nice shots, so I thought I'd share some of my favorites here :) The first two are Atheris squamigera, followed by a Cryptelytrops venustus, a Cryptelytrops insularis, and two Bothriechis schlegelii. Enjoy.

My favorite is the first one. You can see the details of all the scales and stuff. Awesome pics.

Thanks. It came down to the third and last photo. I went with the last shot of my red female Eyelash Viper. Of all my snakes, she's my favorite.

Wow! Those are some really great shots of your hots! I really can't say which I like best as I love them all! Thanks for sharing them. I always love seeing other's collections of hots. As much as I love their beauty, I could never own one. I'm too clumsy lol. But I love living vicariously through other hot owners. :)

I'm glad you all enjoyed them:) It's mostly the camera. I'm getting better, but I still really have no clue on how to use the thing...lol.
