I got on all fours and started clicking away, while Jane stood some distance and distracted Ruby.
A half decent photo for a nifty fifty prime lens on my SOny A6000

Considering that these animals are so very shy I am amazed you managed to get near to him at all. You got a superb capture. Did you need help to get on both feet again? I would have because of my back.
