Yes that's me from the AHA forum and FHF.

Someone asked about Ridge nosed rattlesnakes? Here are just a couple for starters.

WOw, Incredible Snakes, great, Thank you!!!

Btw. You are one of my Idols, your pictures (and from Brandon and the Felder`s) inspired me to buy a camera and picture the Herps I found. My target was/is to get the same quality pics that you made. Hard work, need some more exercises!

Awesome pics!!

Let`s play around, I have no idea, but guess

the first three are Crotalus cerberus, maybe Mount Leommon?
the next are Crotalus stephensi?
next Crotalus mitchelli, but wich area? South park pyrrhus or mitchelli mitchelli Capo Saint Lucia Baja California?
next, male Crotalus lepidus klauberi, it don`t looks like the one from Arizona, for sure New Mexico, maybe Organ mountains? Hmm, or Mexico???
and the last one, I have no Idea, that one have legs!! ;)
