No its not a new morph Laughing

Was mucking about with my photography prog ...with the histogram function to be precise ( I really really need to get to grips with RAW at some point )...any ways took a few pictures ( again ) of pastel and adjusted the output in histogram function ...I think this ( pic below ) is more representative of the actual snake that I see normally .

Lynne , you've seen him in real life ...think its a true likeness ?

blimmey, any more blushing and you won't see him Laughing

Looks good though dude.

your snakes must be well used to a photoshoot by now and striking the pose for you, making sure they suck in their tummy's for you etc etc Laughing

A histogram is on the camera so when you are taking pics you can see whats exposed correctly and whats blown out..some softwares have a histogram that show how your "corrections" are affecting the image..

A histogram is not a magic after touch section in photoshop its just a gauge..much like a speedo in a car..it does nothing to your pics but just tells you if exposure and highlights are balanced and correct..you can't click it and voila better pics..lol..Pete did it not sure that the pic was under exposed??..
