What's the idea behind a light box? I've never heard of them.
its either;
1.)the white paper absorbs the light from a camera flash and you get better colours off the snake inside.
2.)the white paper reflects background lighting so you dont need to use the flash on the camera to get a brighter photo.
more than likely to be the last option lol

There are many things in life that we all take for granted, But the most important things that we affect are the animals and their habitats of this planet. If we can do something for these animals like give them a home and we can meet there basic needs then we are all heroes for making sure that the animals will still be there for future generations and should lead by example.
I've been meaning to try this myself as I always have a hard time with lighting in my photographs.
Good tip on adding some natural substrate, Wayne.
This YouTube video was created and shared by a member of another reptile forum not too long ago. I thought it was a pretty good tutorial and kinda funny too. Though in my opinion wild animals are best photographed in their natural environment. Anyway, hope you enjoy
@ LiL_Boa - Maybe try some larger, thicker craft/construction paper. Also, you could try containing Steve under a container for a few minutes so he's settled down and in a coiled up position.
