Dangit Alessia you gave an awesome photo already! :P

Gotta find something to put Val or Ashanti in. With two squirmy snakes (Romeo and Ashanti) I can't have more than one of them out for pictures, haha.

We're guna get a lot of entries this time.

Snakes and halloween? How much more perfect could it get!

Is there still a no editing rule? What about water marks?

Gungirl · 10-03-12, 10:45 AM

I would think that you can put your water marks on the picture seeing as that is not changing the picture itself.

BarelyBreathing · 10-03-12, 10:52 AM

Thanks, Kat. I believe that's what Wayne told me a few months ago, but I just want to be sure.

Kingsnakechris · 10-03-12, 02:40 PM

My snakes just ate but ill be adding my entry very soon. I love halloween!

Kaetlinv · 10-11-12, 07:07 PM

wish i was able to >.< no good ideas for me. We don't decorate and i'm not about to go spend money on decorations that'll never get used again, lol. Also, it doesn't look like fall at the house the snakes are in, just looks like washington. lol

you don't buy pumpkins to make pumpkin desserts? pumpkins make for a great backdrop

Also, I buy most of my props at the dollar store. I've often paid 50 cents for some great backdrops. Or you could print out a photo from the internet and use that as a backdrop! There are lots of options

Part of my problem is that I'm 2 hours away from my snakes. I come home at least every other weekend, if not every weekend and tend to them (my brother who has a corn snake has been minding their day to day care whilst i'm gone.), but I don't exactly have the means to set up for a perfect photo shoot anymore! Just a lot of pressure. Besides, so many lovely photos already. I'm more creative with natural pictures than set up ones.

I'll let other folks enjoy it

alessia55 · 10-11-12, 07:38 PM
