Re: Cape Cobra (Naja nivea)
Nice pictures. I love the look of those guys but I would never have the confidence to own one.

Re: Cape Cobra (Naja nivea)
Wow....those are some gorgeous snakes and I would love to photograph them also, so I envy you, lol !!! I would probably use a zoom lens though, don't know if I would be that brave even though I always feel more brave with a lens in front of me!!! I did photograph a Momma grizzly and her two cubs in Yellowstone last year from about 20 feet away and survived so maybe a cobra is next on the list!

Re: Cape Cobra (Naja nivea)
"Hello, Guinness Book? I believe we have a new challenger to the 'largest testicles' record. His name is MacAdder. He has staring contests with cobras. Yes, the lethally venomous snakes. Yes, real ones. My apologies to Mr. Norris, but he's quite simply come up short."
Gorgeous photos, man. My hat is off to you.

Re: Cape Cobra (Naja nivea)
Figured I'd toss the photo up, got any more photos of black spitters? I think they look amazing.
