Location
This image was taken at Paignton Zoo in Devon, EnglandTime
Taken about 10.30am as the reptile house was my first port of call o this visit.Lighting
It was taken inside but very good natural lighting for the reptiles. Flashes are not permitted inside.Equipment
This was taken on a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ2000, a great bridge camera for all sorts of photographyInspiration
I love the texture of his skin with that beautiful green colour. He also make the perfect wildlife subject as he didn't move!Editing
A little cropping to enhance the detail in a close up.In my camera bag
I am very lazy as a photographer & only ever carry my cameraFeedback
Get closer to your subject. From a distance you would not be able to see that lovely texture of his skin.
