Hello people. My name is Taiwo and I am a portrait and nature photographer based in Nigeria. Today, August 19 is world photography day. I had an encounter with a snake around May, and I have decided to share the experience today. I did my NYSC P.O.P on August 16, so, by May, I was still a corper.

It was in Akure, Ondo state. There was no electricity (as usual). Our landlord turned on his generator and we took the opportunity to charge. After plugging our devices, some of us sat outside to receive fresh air and wait till 9pm (when the generator will go off). . I was reading a novel with my disloyal Torchlight (Just wait to see the disloyalty ) and my back was resting on the fence. So, it was some minutes past eight and everyone has gone inside to do one thing or the other. I was alone outside.

Suddenly, I started having this farmilar feeling of "something wants to happen". I initially thought maybe a scorpion was around or something. I turned on my Torchlight to shine around me, I didn't see nothing. My body was supposed to calm down after doing that, but it didn't. I instantly knew something bad was around the corner. My heart raced faster. I didn't know what told me to on the Torchlight again and shine it right beside me!! Brothers and sisters, by my left, I saw a fairly big royal python coming towards me !! it was very close to me!!! . Immediately the light from my torch fell on it, it stopped and kind of looked up at the light!!!!! That was the moment my very wicked Torchlight decided to blink twice and go off!! . Ladies and gentlemen, , the speed at which I jumped up from the plastic chair amazes me till today!! I shouted blood of Jesus and ran inside the lodge to alert others. The ladies stayed back. of course!! we looked for sticks and I made sure I didn't smash the head more than once, because, the photographer in me just saw an opportunity to take pictures of a python! The devil suggested I preserve it in my room till the next morning!! . What if it wakes up and decides to cuddle me in the midnight?

So, I took a few shots the next morning and replaced the slightly smashed head in Photoshop. Nobody helped me to hold the dead snake or the stick it was on. Very challenging, but, I got the shot and I am happy.
Shots were taken on my Nikon d40x and 55-200mm lens. I need a better camera for wildlife and stuffs. Yes I know!! But, economy is hard.

cc lalasticlala help me push it to the promise Land.

mehnnn, u take better pictures than Buhari photographer. Abi na picture edit u do

How many mad people do say Damn niggar Issoright on this forum?.. Those mad people are spreading like vampires as Slawomir is the Original

Looks cool

The picture of you taking a shot of a dead python is so funny. Like you don't have a job yet.

Anyway sha, may God catapult you to a level where you will take pictures of live pythons. Amen

As a wild life photographer, you are supposed to be heading to the wild every now and then but no, you were sitting jejely on your own, at the comfort of your neighbourhood, a python decided to pay you a visit hahahaha and my brother, what did you do? You ran away. You later came back reinforced, killed the snake, and started taking picture of the carcass.

Wild life photographer, I hail o

. Thank you sir. The editing was there. But, those shots were taken with a cheap Nikon d40x camera. Bayo omoboriowo, buhari's photographer doesn't do wild life stuffs. We are different...

. In this Nigeria, I doubt it o. But, we will keep on trying...

We would only know if you try. That is a niche that hasn’t been explored. First you have to stop smashing non-venomous snakes. Even if you do, no one should know you did . I’ll suggest you follow other wildlife photographers to see how they started.

TalkTalkTwins:
I think they should create a snake category, where you can post all your snake related stories

Who else is thinking with me?

I'm with you sir

lala over to you after the shooting. two seconds pepper soup done set be that

. I agree with you. I seriously want to explore that niche. In all honesty, it was after killing it and making some enquires online that I discovered it was non poisonous. But, we have Sha killed it.
