I'm going to keep going on with a monthly theme again and doing the May half and half challenge. I've seen this young lace monitor in this area a few times lately - so beautiful but only about 1.2 m long so quite a youngster.
Superb 1/2&1/2 - great dof and bokeh to the left and such rough textures to the solid tree trunk with the bonus of this beautiful little lace monitor ! fav
The monitor looks as if he/she has great colouring around the underside of the neck, and is warming up nicely in the sunshine - how big do lace monitors get? It's a great view of the claws.
