Repeating a python

The AFP apparently has only one picture of a snake, and they use it as an illustration for all snake stories. Witness below, a screen capture from Yahoo News on August 27, 2006:




















The datelines for the stories read "ANKARA" (Turkey) and "GENEVA" (Switzerland), and they were posted on different days, yet they bear the same photo of a python. Lazy on the part of the AFP, especially since the story from Switzerland is about an adder, not a python.
