Great portrait Phil. Lucky that these guys don't usually feel threatened by us togs, it allows a good opportunity get get some decent images.

Yeah - keep your distance, go quietly and carefully towards them, no sudden sideways movements, and use heaps of zoom lens

I do like a lot and have done just what you have said to get my shot of Goanna's when they are about.

Nice and sharp, good colour and the low angle works really well.
