too bad it´s not giving us the blue tongue. *g*
wonderful sharp and clear portrait, dean! :-)
looks like you must have been really near.
the details on the skin are awesome and so is its fierce look.
terrific job & take care, thorsten.

i haven´t been around too much lately either, lots of stuff
to do and visitors, after the end of september things will
hopefully "calm" down. *g*

Hi Dean,
Time is always problem, I recognised that myself.
A very good portrait you produced here of this friendly looking guy.
Details and colours are quite good, the whole picture is razor-sharp. Informative note too. Well done Dean.
Regards, Ruud

Hi Dean,
I'm not around as much lately either, very busy at work which as amateurs we all have to do :-( I've never even heard of a Skink before now :-) He's a handsome chap for sure and I think it's a great shot. I love the composition and the tack-sharp detail, just excellent. Lizards, Snakes (and Skinks!) work so well when the focus and detail is this good. Perfect DOF and exposure too, great work my friend.
Cheers,
Adrian

Apropiado POV y elección del encuadre, así como el DOF y el fondo obtenido.

I love reptile shots. They usually have beautiful colors and textures in them. Your exposure is excellent here. Beautiful subtle colors in this guy. Bice sharp detail really brings out the intricate textures of the skin. Great comp. and framing on the shot! Excellent camera work!

Hello Dean,
Wow, it´s a strange reptil, its heads looks like a bit alien movie monster film, or some similar.
Excellent framing, details and light accompanied with an instructive note.
Best regards

Hi Dean,
I wonder if this one was photograped behind glass. I went to a reptile zoo last week. Unfortunately the animals were behind sometimes dirty glass and lighten by too less light with weird colour temperatures.
It looks like this one is photographed in open air or better I could be like that?
Nice skink capture...

Looks like dad after he has just got up in the morning. Seriously though, it's better looking. Again your framing is spot on and so are the details. Lovely and sharp, great natural colours too. Excellent.
