I picked this one up almost 2 weeks ago, talk about a feisty snake when i got it!

Striking, rattling posturing. Caught me 3 times although sadly no pain or blood to show.

It is calming down beautifully but is still VERY fast.

Don't worry, he'll get you in his own good time, he's just trying to put you at ease for the moment, make you think he's all threats and no action

As before, superb picture quality. How the £&!! do you do that?! The last picture is a favourite, makes me laugh!

I actually prefer the second one from the bottom, although i do love the last as well.

As for how it is done, steady hand, good camera and that is about it. No skill involved, honest Guv'.

It wasn't a matter of the snake staying still for the picture, it was more a case of it wanting to kill my camera. It would stop for a second and then about a split second after that pic was taken the little thing struck at my camera over and over... then caught my finger. haha

It is a killer i tells ya!
