 Pair of my baby Amelanistic (lacking black pigment) Cornsnakes in a branch in my front yard.
*After challenge edit - thanks so much for all the great comments everyone. 2nd best score and placing to date. Yes - they really are this bright - I did very little with the adjustment of the hue/saturation. Amelanistic cornsnakes are known for their bright red/orange coloration and lack of black. *

Wonderful focus and clarity of color. Nice blurred background sets them off perfectly. I don't like snakes, but I like the photo of them! Would have been good for a textures challenge too.

Great shot, love the way the upper snake's iris appears almost like a jewel stuck on the eye. Good 3D effect and an intriguing image
