Photographing large snakes

22 is not enough snakes
anyone have any tips on photographing big snakes? It always seems to me it's a trade off between getting detail and getting more than just, say, the head in the shot.
 
The only thing I can say is wait for the right moment. I always get full body shots of my larger boas when I happen to see them snuggled in their hide...I just remove the hide and snap a few quick pics. Sometimes I need to turn them if their head is facing the wrong way, but they usually don't move from their coil when I do that. Maybe because they're used to my no nonsense handling?
