very nice shot
paradize for herpatologists!

Hi Peter, very nice composition and colour on this Bungarra. I like the way the tail is curled around to fit it all into the shot. Too bad about the right leg, but you can see the power of this lizard well enough with the two left legs. This is a very impressive animal, and its well captured here.

Thanks, John

I've never seen this lizard before. A very elegant one with this so long neck.
A pity about the cut leg, but this is not really disturbing. Pose and POV are excellent.
