Another snake today.

Out on the job today, another opportunity presented itself in the form of this magnificent Australian Python.

It was a bit tricky holding it with my left hand while trying to support a Gripped 5DII and lens with the other, but I got a couple of shots I'm happy with.

Baz.

1. Tricky hold

2. Crop

3. Eyes for you

Nice shots of creatures I'd never seen before! Thanks!

I personally would prefer more depth of field (smaller aperture, longer exposure). Like e.g. f/6 at 1/200 s instead of f/2.8 at 1/1000 s. But don't take any notice of me if you don't want to.

Keep up the good work.

I'm keen to know how you found out the image details. I've tried this before. I have been right clicking, checking info and properties from the IIS uploaded image, but can't seem to find that info. How do you do it?

Baz.

If you're using Firefox, the Exif Viewer add-on will display Exif data for an image with a right click.

Like Henry said it's from EXIF info. I use Linux and it's easy to access that data by right clicking etc. If your OS is not so co-operative, just open the image with photoshop / imagemagick / gimp and explore from there.
