Hi. a few pics i took of my young female.




Thanks

Wow, the first one is piercing!

Did You shoot this in Your garden? No fear she could escape?

Beautiful animal!
(Black) mamba's belong to my list of favorite species for sure!

Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Thank you for the kind comments, only been into photography for a few months and really enjoying, comments like this really inspire me to try harder and get better.

@Guenter , the pics were taken in my back garden, not too worried about escape, they are quite used to been handled. The tree that i have them in is in a big pot, so i centralize in the garden, so things work well.

Black Mamba's are my favorite snake by far. I have 6 of the beauties.

Thanks

Stunning shots and animal, thanks for sharing.

Hi, great shot, what camera and lense you use?

Cheers

Dave

I use a Canon 350D with a sigma 70-300mm DG Macro lense, the lense is really nice in that it has 1:2 magnification between 200-300mm. It allows to get really nice close up pics of the snakes from about 1m away.

thanks
