| I thought about such a shelter too, but I guess it would restrict me to much in the ability to move and shoot. | |

| Just took my time to look at the pictures in this topic and from now on i'm speechless... I get some nice compliments on my pictures, but yours are really awesome!! There's not one picture in here that doesn't speak to me. Although there a few that really stand out, in my opinion... Thanks for sharing these and lighten my day...  | |

| Your durissus-picture is an impressive masterpiece, Guenter, surely one of your best shots!
I'm looking forward to see a print of this on a wall here at the zoo....

| Haha, maybe we should apply it to the ceiling? Workes fine in many churches, why not in a reptile zoo? | |

| Hi Guenter, Do you also have pictures of Montivipera? I really like youre pictures! I'm jealous! I see you use the Canon 5D MII I want to have that camera since it became available, but the money-tree at my balcony died.  Best regards, Johann | |

| Hi Johann!
Well I guess, a very few shots of Montivipera but not really good ones. I have to look.
The Canon 5DII will get a lot cheaper maybe in autumn when the new Canons (5DIII?) will come. BTW a really perfect gear for snake photography!
Best regards,
Guenter | |

| Cool shots. Do you also have "a sharper" picture of the inland taipan? I like the photo but I wish I could see more body | |

| Thank You!
The C. horridus shot was done with Canon 5DII and Sigma 150/2.8 Macro.
The B. rhinoceros shot was done with the same camera but a Sigma 8mm fisheye lens through glass at a distance from about 1cm. | |
