My good old Snake Skin suit is still usable! The fabric lost a bit of its elasticity and gloss, some seams had been reworked several times, gloves and socks are worn-out - but still its looking great! First appearance of this suit was at gallery 25 in 2005 and I had this suit even before that date.

The colors and impressions of the fabric at different lightings are fascinating. At sun light the suit looks much more matte and colors are more brown/yellow, with flash light it looks more green-/blueish and much more textured. Just amazing.

  

Stay safe and healthy!

my selection of photos of the beautiful Python Pool, tucked away in the Chichester Ranges, Pilbara, West Australia (taken soon after sunrise). The perfect reflection in the small pool of the two huge rock walls was stunning, creating quite an imposing and timeless image.

Another shot of the beautiful young Royal python, who was one of my favourites on the day. Taken on a photography day with CaptiveLight in Bournemouth.

Albino, Pastel, and Normal Ball Pythons. These girls are all grown up now.

This carpet python was being harassed by a Currawong

(flic.kr/p/i2LBqe ) in Les Atkinson Park at Sunnybank, and eventually I decided not to get too close, as it was obviously a bit distressed. Eventually it slithered away.

A young adult male found on the crawl on a brutally hot and humid morning in extreme south Florida. This snake was an unexpected surprise while checking a trap line for other invasive species and is only the second python I've seen this year.

This python was sunning itself up high in a tree at "The Polish Place" Mount Tamborine. I thought snakes hibernated in winter? photo was taken on our shortest day of the year.

A typical night on the hunt for Florida's invasive pythons.

 

This night drone photograph was taken as a hobbyist. Maintained line of sight and was taken at 30 feet(below tree line)

A large female Burmese Python (Python bivittatus) in the 10-11 foot range captured during a night survey in Everglades National Park. A second individual just a little further down the road while this snake was being captured.

This Python was well hidden, coiled high in a tree along the Kinabatangan River.

This beautiful exhibit has been on display at the San Diego Zoo for many years. I've been so impressed by the beauty of this snake skeleton, that years ago, after I killed a rattlesnake in my driveway, I put the body in my cactus garden so that the ants and beetles could strip it down to a skeleton. My brilliant plan failed because the coyotes came the same night, and ripped the carcass to pieces and ate most of the snake. Oh, well.

Went for a walk in the rainforest with my wife yesterday and came uopn this nice sized Diamond Python coiling up in the sun.

Captive wild juvenile python about 2ft in length

The reptile was released unharmed back to the wild at the nature reserve (relocation) soon after the pics were taken.

Combination of 2 images to achieve sufficient dof at its eyes.

 

This ball python will grow much larger. Right now, she's part of the education team.

A picture, I've made at Zoo Karlsruhe.

Photographing snakes is a joy. They're such beautiful creatures. I met this Green Tree Python at a photography day with CaptiveLight yesterday. If you don't like reptiles and frogs, please feel free to tune out for a while. I'll try to intersperse these images with a few other subjects to break them up a bit, but I'm afraid there will be lots more to come. :)

The slide was never going to be the most popular ride at the funfair but on a cold damp night stuck at the end of all the other rides no matter how brightly lit is was it still looked lost

This reticulated python lives at Thrigby Hall Wildlife Park in Norfolk.

 

Individuals of this species have proved to be indisputably the longest snake in the world. Their length ranges from 5ft to 21ft 4in. (1.5 to 6.5 m) with a weight of between 2lb. 3 oz. to 165 lb. 6 oz. (1 to 75 kg)

The snakes complex geometric pattern is made up of irregular diamond shapes in olive green, brown, white, and gold, with a black outline. The back typically has a series of irregular diamond shapes flanked by smaller markings with light centres. In the snakes wide geographic range, much variation of size, colour, and markings commonly occurs. The pattern is called disruptive colouration and in a shadowy jungle environment amid fallen leaves and debris, it allows them to virtually disappear, protecting them from predators and helping them to catch their prey.

Reticulated pythons are solitary creatures and are active throughout the night. They are found in South and Southeast Asia. It inhabits rainforests, woodlands, and nearby grasslands and may venture into agricultural land or near human habitation. It is also associated with rivers and is found in areas with nearby streams and lakes. They are a slow moving snakes but are excellent swimmers, it has even been reported far out at sea and has consequently has colonized many islands within its range

As with all pythons, the reticulated python is an ambush predator, usually waiting until prey wanders within strike range before seizing it in its coils and killing by constriction. Its natural diet includes mammals and occasionally birds. Small snakes up to 10 to 13 ft. (3 to 3.9 m) long eat mainly small mammals such as rats, other rodents, mouse-eared bats, and treeshrews, whereas larger individuals take prey such as small Indian civet and bearcats, primates, pigs, and deer weighing more than 135 lb. (61.25 kg). Adult humans have been killed and eaten by this snake. As a rule, the reticulated python seems able to swallow prey up to one-quarter its own length and up to its own weight.

Adult females lay between 15 and 80 eggs per clutch. At an optimum incubation temperature of 31–32 °C (88–90 °F), the eggs take an average of 88 days to hatch.[ The hatchlings are at least 2 ft. (61 cm) in length and are independent at birth. The young pythons can expect to live for about 23 years.

King cobras and crocodiles prey on reticulated pythons. Eggs and juvenile pythons are vulnerable to predators such as hawks, eagles, herons, and small mammals. The python is still persecuted by man for it's skin, for use in traditional medicine, for meat and for sale as pets. Few snakes live long enough to reach their maximum potential size.

According to IUCN, the reticulated python is locally common and widespread throughout its range but no overall population estimate is available. Currently, this species is classified as 'Least Concern' on the IUCN Red List

Not normally a fan of snakes but this cheeky little one looks cute if that is possible for a snake

One of the many highlights from my trip to Australia over Christmas were the various reptiles we saw. Aside from the small lizards and monitors, we saw 3 species of snake as well: Carpet Python, Tree Snake and Red-bellied Black.

 

We spotted this huge Carpet Python after hearing a branch snap while walking along a creek. It must have been about 2 metres long and wasn't bothered by us photographing it.

 

I will be uploading some more photos from my trip over the coming days and weeks so make sure you check back to see them!
