Dragon Portrait...
Well maybe not quite a dragon but a Green Iguana from Honduras. This one allowed some very close images to be taken and was even happy to pose with a colleague being in very close proximity..! Still completely wild and a great experience.

Colours of the animal work well with the background, nice contrast and detail - great shot.

Excellent detail where it counts, against a complementary BG.

The title led me to think this would be a dragonfly - silly me. :rolleyes:

What a cracking detailed picture of a beautiful animal.

Thanks for letting us see it. :toast:

Funny, like Mike I too thought it was going to be a dragonfly. But a nice surprise when I saw it!

Lovely colour in the dragon, the light and detail are superb. I am surprised it let you get so close!

Great work Brett,

I thought this was going to be a Dragonfly too. Really nice colours and texture details.
