Default HDR copperhead

Hey guys besides messing with trucks my other hobby is catching snakes. Im saving up for a canon T1i so I can get better pics, but until then my Htc evo pics will have to do. The broad banded copperhead I caught was doctored up with the Pro HDR Camera app for the android system. I'll post up more as I catch them.

I respect snakes. I don't catch venomous snakes anymore. I saw what happens when you get bit by one. Not a pretty sight. I also do not kill them unless I have to.

I respect them also, I don't act stupid around them. I also use the right equipment to catch them with. A buddy of mine had gotten bit by a Copperhead and spent a few days in the hospital only because he didn't take immediate action after he got tagged. The copperheads that I catch are sent to Texas A&M herpetology department for venom research. They are researching the venom for properties that could aid in the fight against breast cancer.

Thanks. The first was through a jar and made the picture look a little funny.

I deal more everyday with things that have fangs. I am not going to add real snakes to that. I hate them. I kill everyone that I see. I respect them because they can kill me. I work to hard to stay alive and to extend my life to mess with them.
