[Jande]

Thanks for the share, always a pleasure to see your photos. Browns shot is fantastic.

 

[mysnakesau]

You take beautiful photos. I wonder how often those little whip snakes get mistakened for browns? Their head pattern would appear very similar to people who don't know their snake species. Are those your gecko's or were they really in the wild? I don't ever see any gecko's around my place. I've been told the barking gecko's are popular here but I've never seen any.

 

[cheekabee]

Frieking Great finds and esspecially pics man, how do you get them to stay still.

 

[Channaz]

Great pics! How do you get them to stay still long enough to photograph?

 

[mysnakesau]

For them to stay still YOU need to not move. But of course, cameras with multi-snap function and a decent zoom lens does a beautiful job and bringing them in nice and close.

 

[Chanzey]

What is on the back of that brown? is it an old skin or fungus that was on the underside of a log? or something else :?

 

[richoman_3]

thanks everyone !!!

eddie - canon 60D with a 100mm macro lense

mysnakesau - yeah the geckos are wild, and trust me, nothing basks in 13c melbourne weather, so zoom lens wont do anything

cheekebee + Hannaz - getting them to stay is the easiest bit !

Chanzey - yep, its crap !! the dirty bastard crapped on the other one right before the pic !
