Re: He's here! At long last, my Eastern Indigo.

Alright Em, tell me this..how do you get Loki to stay still for your shots? The only time I can get a still picture is when I lift their hide a day or two after feeding them.

LOL. I take about 100 shots and throw away the 99 where he didn't cooperate.

With the last photo I posted, I put his hide down and put him in it. I got ready and mostly focused, then had my daughter lift the hide off. That particular time, he sat still long enough to get several photos.

But, generally, it's the shotgun approach.
