Independence day/Canada day this month!

Independence and Canada? Same sentence? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You my friend are hilarious! I am going to laugh about that for a week!

[moshirimon]

Just saying don't forget about canada day, it's in the same month. I understand Canada isn't fully independent yet. I didn't mean to put any relation between the two.

[Snakefood]

ya but I bet we can't skip the blue in our pics!!LOL

[infernalis]

Red and white , a canadian flag would be acceptable.

[Snakefood]

awesome, you rock!!!!!

[infernalis]

Just a reminder, no photo shopping, superimposing or altered pictures accepted.

[Snakefood]

I get it!!

[Kingsnakechris]

Does it need to be a background or can we incorporate the red white n blue into the pic itself?

[AustinG]

Is it okay to print out a generic American flag picture from the internet and use that as a background?

[Reptilegal]

Cmon people!!! My snake is getting lonely being the only pic up yet!! :)

I did a photo shoot with 4 of my snakes and a US Flag. Got some really cool pictures and go to download them to find out someone broke my cord. So now i have to order a new one.:angry:

[marvelfreak]

Com people lets see some pictures. This is one of the easiest photo contest we have. I will say i was amazed at how the red, white, and blue back ground really makes their color pop.

[marvelfreak]

I am sure you all think there no way i could take a cooler picture than Chuck or Reptilegal. Hey you'll never know if you don't try. So i am put down a challenge to everyone to try a top our pictures. Plus people were your pride in your country?

Props? All i did was move the branch in my snake room i use for picture in front of the America flag hanging in the snake room. These are props everyone should already have in there snake room.;) lol

They didn't say so any reptile can be used for the pictures.

[CK SandBoas]

I really haven't been in the mood to do the photo contest for some reason, so that's why I haven't done one

[RobsCornField]

I just signed up for the forum a few minutes ago, and didn't realize y'all do photo contests! OH GOODY!!!! I'll work on something when I get home from work, and have it posted by tomorrow. ;)

[CK SandBoas]

I was so hoping to get to see a a pic with our baby KSB.:sad:

Well, i tried, but they're not cooperating, plus they're all pretty much going into their first shed, so no such luck:(

[marvelfreak]

Oh well! At least you tried.

[CK SandBoas]

Oh well! At least you tried.

Maybe i'll post the one crappy shot i got, lol

[marvelfreak]

Maybe i'll post the one crappy shot i got, lol
Or you could always try later or with one of your many other beautiful snakes.:D

[Gungirl]

I have to be in the mood to want to take pictures and right now it seems like a huge chore so I don't see me getting a shot of my snakes any time soon at all....

[alessia55]

Props? All i did was move the branch in my snake room i use for picture in front of the America flag hanging in the snake room. These are props everyone should already have in there snake room.;) lol
LOL Chuck. I don't have an American flag hanging in any of the rooms of my house. The props I bought were those tiny American flags you can buy for $1.

When is the deadline to submit?

[marvelfreak]

When is the deadline to submit?
That i am not sure Wayne would be the guy to ask.

[alessia55]

The deadline is July 24th, so that we can have the last week of July to vote.

We will hopefully keep to this sort of schedule from now on:
the first ~21 days of the month are for submitting photos
the last 7 days of the month are for voting & choosing the next theme (5 days for voting, 2 days for the winner to choose a theme)

Hopefully if we keep to this sort of schedule (as best we can), we'll be able to keep the photo contests going and moving more smoothly ;)

[marvelfreak]

So when are we going to start voting?

[melissaisdown]

I just voted :D I am bummed I missed the deadline by two days. I wouldn't have except that my SD card decided to reformat itself and I lost 509 of 631 photos. Oh well, I'll just have to wait till next month. This is the one I would have submitted, nothing special but somewhat patriotic:
