Frilled neck lizard - Chlamydosaurus kingii

For my first contribution, I chose a very symbolic animal for me, it was from him that my fascination for biodiversity was born when I was a child. And it was also one of the goals of my trip to Australia!

  Thank you, Flavio indeed I put a lot of effort in the lightning management especially during the day which makes the thing harder from my point of view to get a right exposure ! Posted one year ago

      Haha yes it is not an easy thing at the beginning, wide lens get a lot more light amount than long focal, it makes it a bit trickier to use Posted one year ago
