    Dragon

    Any comments on this one. I took this at the Memphis Zoo a couple of weeks ago. The focus could be sharper but I didn't have a tripod with me. The highlights are blown out, but with no control over the lighting is there anything I could have done about that?
    Cropped to get it's head out of the center of the frame.
    Fuji S5000, 1/28, F3.2, ISO 200, 34.5mm (224mm - 35mm equivalent)

    Very Prehistoric

    A very prehistoric looking fellow. Under very bad lighting conditions I think you did a very nice job of capturing this subjects personality. Good closeup. I assume you were shooting through glass and that always make the job even tougher.

    This is a good shot of the Komodo Dragon. Especially under the challenges that you overcome to get this. Really well done. I think the sharpness is good. These guys usually drool their deadly saliva. . .would have been cool to catch this guy drooling in a shot like this. . .add some drama. But thats not a critique. I like this alot and say well done.
    please do not edit and repost my photos
