Press Release Summary: Africapic.com
is a photography library in South Africa that specializes in wildlife
and African images. They have made their pictures available
for free for web use. They have recently received the contributions
of a snake specialist who has added some of the most incredible
snake pictures. There are some extremely rare and dangerous snakes
in their snake pictures collection.
Press Release Body: Based in South Africa Africapic.com is a fairly
unique stock library, in that they offer users the ability to use
their images for free on the web. Users are required to copy certain
code and the images will then display wherever the code is placed.
They have developed some advanced technology, integrated into the
pixels of the image that keeps track of where their images are being
used, and ensures that users do not alter the code supplied.
They have a large collection of African
images, with a predominant focus on wildlife and South Africa.
Their collections are growing at a rapid rate. In particular they
have an exceptional gallery of snake pictures. It is apparent that
they keep their image standard high, and this snake gallery is no
exception.
Their collection of puff adder snake
pictures is fascinating. These snakes cause more fatal snakebites
than any other snake in the world. They can strike backwards, and
are extremely camouflaged. They also do not move out of the way.
Their favourite place to lie is in a sandy path. Beware of these
snakes when you visit Africa. To see what one of these adders looks
like have a look at these snake pictures http://www.africapic.com/pictures_of_snakes_spiders_reptiles.html
They also have a great few photos
of black mambas. Many deem this to be the most deadly snake
in the world. They are neurotoxic (which causes your breathing to
stop), are 4m+ in length, extremely aggressive and extremely fast.
Depending on where you are bitten, you have about 45mins to get
anti-venom, or you start pushing up daisies. To have a look at some
of these monsters have a look at these snake pictures http://www.africapic.com/pictures_of_snakes_spiders_reptiles.html.
