We just took a family vacation to Queensland and visited Australia Zoo while we were there (if you get the chance, get along to it. Well worth it). Caught this little chap sitting on a fence railing. He is a Water Dragon and is approximately 6 inches long. It had us in stitches! Every time i took a shot, he would put his hand up. Nikon D300, 80 – 400mm at 180mm, f/5, 1/200, ISO 400 . .
Hahahaha… how gorgeous!! : ) one of life’s little entertainers for sure.. well captured Craig! We will visit there next time we go to Queensland.. it sounds wonderful! Wen x
Awesome find and capture :) Lizards are pretty fun to observe and photograph. :)

G’day Craig,
What fantastic interaction you had with this posing li’l rascal. Good to see you kept your cool and made a good shot of this wonderful experience. Good lighting, good exposure and a sharp focus ensure we get to see most of the detail clearly and crisply and the use of depth of field keeps the viewer’s eyes where the action is. The colours are vibrant and natural and the dragon’s pose is something you just could not pay for. Very well seen and very well done!
