Python Pool is a popular swimming spot but I got there before the crowd arrived. A pleasure to have an almost windless day. Millstream Chichester National Park, Western Australia
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!
Adult tree pythons are bright to emerald green with a light yellow belly. They have a series of white or yellow scales scattered on the body. Juveniles are bright lemon-yellow, gold, red or orange. Found in New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Aru Islands and in the very north of Australia. Toronto Zoo. Gold Medalist, Color Green, Color Photo Award pool, May 2011.

This Python was coiled up in his enclosure when I photographed him.

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
We spotted this Diamond python on the side of the road driving through Kangaroo Valley, NSW. What a beauty! So I got out of the car, lied down on the tarmac and crawled towards the snake, and then the python was just looking straight at me... what a thrill!

This Childrens Python was relocated from someones backyard in Mount Isa in April 2014. Through sheer luck the same snake was found last night still in good condition. The markings on the neck were used to determine it was the same snake. It is good to see that a relocation was successful and the snake is still in good health almost 10 months on.
It also gave me the opportunity to try out my new lense, the Canon 24-70mm F/4 Antaresia childreni. Sybella Creek, Mount Isa, QLD.

The python at night during one of the night openings at the Efteling. Python is coloring the Dutch and French flag when coming through.
One of the most iconic roller-coasters in De Efteling and the only one without any theming. Since the opening in 1981 just a roller coaster without a story behind it. In the second half of 2017 Python will be completely dismantled (except for the station and lift-hill) to be built up again. This -as we speak- 26-years old coaster is ready for the future after this renovation.
Python
Python is a double-loop Corkscrew roller coaster in the Efteling amusement park in the Netherlands. When it started operation, it was the largest steel roller coaster on the European mainland.
With Python, Efteling started the implementation of a new strategy: development from a fairy-tale forest into an all-round amusement park. This change led to many problems with the local community. Environmentalists tried to get the building permit withdrawn, and the park's neighbors feared more problems arising from growing visitor numbers. Because of the likely noise pollution, the highest court of public justice ordered the construction to be stopped. After some time, construction could recommence, but legal problems continued for several more years.
In 2005 the trains were replaced by Kumbak Coasters designed by Karel Willemen and in December 2011 with Vekoma MK1212 trains. In mid January 2012, the python was fitted with new carriages. These new cars have a new set of restraints which accommodate the needs of riders large and small. There is a flexible over the shoulder strap which is not unlike those on accelerator coasters such as Kingda ka but slightly thicker. Over these are metal bars for riders to hold on to and to give support to the under straps. Also, the cars have been fitted with wheels that allow a smoother ride.
