Here is the photo table i use now. Black velvet drapted over a table. I put a prop (piece of wood) in the center of the table and set the grey card up for custom white balance.

note white specks of dirt on velvet. Easily removed with any photo editor. I left these photos un-edited.

Nice Christian! Wish I had the room to set up a photo station.... I need a better camera first anyway......

Very nice demo.

Snake looks great, too.

Thanks for sharing the photo studio and cool pics of a sweet boa

It sure is.. with the large softbox option. I originally got the flash unit for people portraits but i have used it for snakes more than anything else ;)

wow... Im impressed... using an AB for shooting snakes. High dollar flash unit there... makes my studio strobes look cheap and they aint.

And all because of you.... now I want a boa.

geeee thanks :)

Gotta fight the urge... cause I have an empty 55 that had a Timber in it at one time.

Great set of pics. Thanks for posting the how too as well.

Nice Pics and thanks for the photo tips. That's a great looking normal.
