Like the title says this is my last mini project. A total of 3h from last afternoon spent working in these.
We are always learning with our mistakes so nothing that fantastic at all, but the result isnt that bad also.
I own an old EOS 400D so this is what I'm able to work with now.
Hope you all enjoy.
Cheers,

-Plethodon cinereus
-Plethodon cylindraceys
-Plethodon richmondi

Lovely photos (although looking a bit overexposed on my screen...?) and animals, especially number 9 What lens do you use?

awesome pics, very moving in a way. They look just right on my screen :)
My favorite is the one of the Paramesotriton where he's looking straight at us.

Is that the same one as in your avatar?

Eva, regarding the exposure: Yes its really controversial.. In my laptop viewing pictures from desktop they seem just fine. When going into de internet they seem really a bit overexposed. But from public PC's and friends laptops they seem perfectly normal so yeah it really depends on the screen... In the most advanced ones they might seem a bit overexposed Im afraid..

As for Molch, Thanks. but no. The one at the avatar is a one month old morph from Paramesotriton guangxiensis. These are another Paramesotriton juvies with 2-3years old.

Cheers,
Jorge

Can I ask what you use as the base on which you photograph your animals and what the lighting conditions are?

Eva, I used sheets of paper and light was a flash. The conditions were not good since there was a great amount of shade created. I'll repeat all with other more complex techniques and hopefully will end with better results, these were pretty lame xD
