So after watching a lot pictures from GF I start thinking about why I can't get better pictures with my cam since is a nice one. So look back to the manual and start taking picture from the geckos that I will like to know what morph, color and pattern they show. Need to still practicing my photo shooting but here are the pictures also if somebody can give any good idea to improve lighting will be appreciate it. Let start.

What strain of albino, pattern and colors on this girl?

Nice looking pics man. That first gecko is a tremper albino.

Can I call her a Tangerine Tremper Albino, High Yellow Tremper Albino or just a Tremper Albino. I just want to have all the info just to let know the future buyers of their offspring what exactly their parents are.

thanks

I personally would just call it a tremper albino. I would ask the breeder you bought it from to ask more about what the parents where.

A tip on your photos. If you are using a point and shoot, you should look for a longer exposure setting, along with using more lighting. If you have a DSLR, try a lower f stop, and a longer exposure. Or the easy way is to use a flash. A longer exposure lets more light in, and a lower F stop setting is better for close ups, and allows more light in as well. Oh and try not to shoot the pic on a white surface. The white reflects more light back at the camera telling it there is more light then there really is. Black, blue brown or dark green, any dark color really will help the camera know its shooting in low light.

I'd agree that the first one is a Tremper. I have one similar to that on my shoulder as I type.

Thanks Will, it seems like you know about photography. I just follow your tips and continued playing with the camera. Then I found that my camera have an option to select under what type of lighting I am (tungsten, daylight, daylight with shades and fluorescent). So I start playing a little, also it have different letter for different modes (PASM) and I choose A (Aperture Priority mode controls depth of field.) Here are the results.

First try normal light setting

Second try tungsten

And then (Fluorescent) the room light bulb is one of those that said energy saver.

Is my enigma showing Eclipse Eye? I hatched two black holes from her this year. When I take pictures from the other eye the iris is just a thin line.

It's great to see pictures of my babies! I'm glad you like them so much!:D

I was a little concern because it have pass 4 days since I received them and the MSTE didn't ate anything until yesterday. You can see that she also have a smiling face!!! :D

Hey there you go. This pic
100_3503.jpg
looks good. Nice light balance and correct coloring (I'm guessing.) The normal light setting is likely your best bet. That said, your experimental shots on the other settings created some cool looking geckos. ;) I bet you could really get people going if you had a really wild looking gecko and you used one of the other settings that will act like a light filter and cause some colors to be more vivid or different altogether. :main_laugh: Keep playing with the camera, if nothing else you can "invent" a new morph based on the camera settings (not really but it could look that way. ;))
