Thanks Simon I took this photo in a very dark bit of bush behind Emerald. I got three shots of this guy in a little patch of light. The “black” backgound is “as shot”.

This is excellent, Norm. The way he stands out against the black background is super.

Thank you Mick, I was actually chassing his missis when he popped out in the light as if to say “leave her alone”. I got three shots, thefirst looked like a waring, this was the second and the third was the rear end as he departed!

Thank you Kristina, I take a lot of photos of these , not because they are common (there not – but wide spread) but because they are so pretty that I’m always trying to get that “better” shot!
