enjoy!
 
Good shots Nick. I particularly like the way the specimens are arranged to include the whole body, with good enough dof and timing to catch the tongues. These pics would be good for field guides. Well done.
 
What! No love for the small eyed. No wonder they spend most their lives hiding under logs and pavers.

Nice pictures though. That was a nice looking copperhead.
 
How the hell do you get the shots so close up?
Compact or DSLR? Some sort of zoom lens?
Awesome photos by the way man. :)

Canon 60D with a 100mm f2.8 macro lens :)

Getting the tongue isnt too easy Bushman lol!

haha very true RedFox!

cheers all!
 
Great shots man, that bibron's toadlet and pink tailed worm lizards were such a great finds cant get better than that.
 
That second picture is beautiful :) All of your photos are! :D:D:D

....make a calander so I can buy it :p:D

It is not hollow praise either Nick i know a bit about the Photgraphic Art, My Father was the Photographer in charge for the RAAF for 22 years and he did everything from ID photo's to Crash Recovery all around the world as well as all the Arty stuff you find in all the high ups offices and Parliament House, the funny thing was he hated photography and refused to take it up when he mustered out from the RAAF as all the best paying jobs was doing baby photo's and portrait stuff, no good to him. I would hate to see you wasting your talents, it is a special gift. :) .....................................Ron
