Ummm, I can't see any strange markings.....that looks normal to me! Can you tell us which bit you think is strange? Are you talking about the white and pale greenish markings? If you are that's normal.

You'll notice that when we get some sunshine the underbelly looks really pretty. It's like a rainbow of colours if you get it in the right light.
Don't worry about asking questions if something is worrying you. It's better to ask and get help. We won't mind. We all had to learn!!

They're just how the belly checkers are on amels. My guy has the same. Most corns have black checkers but because amelanistic have no melanin (Black pigment) thats how the belly checkers are.

Kind of off topic, but what's a decent camera for taking pictures of corns, the majority of mine elmos head was out of focus, I was looking at
http://www.play.com/Electronics/Electronics/-/257/337/-/12495591/Pentax-Optio-E75-10-1-Megapixel-3x-Optical-Zoom-2-7-LCD-Digital-Camera-Black/Product.html?searchtype=genre
on play would this be good for getting more crisp pictures, all the pictures i've seen on this site look amazing compared to mine.

Thanks trev

Many people have asked a similar question and the general answer is that for most of us to get a decent couple of pictures we have to take about 50. Most of the time I just point and shoot as much as I can. I try various light sources, flash on/ off, various settings etc. Then I just use whatever is half decent lol.

I use my phone so never get great pics, but they're clear enough.

a great tip i got told a few weeks back is to set the exposure really fast with a high appature setting.

i also stick a rizla over the flash as a cheapo makeshift diffuser too :)
