Hi Ian,
I like this for the Dragon looking straight into the lens,
Perhaps just moments before the attack, (~8
Nicely done,

Thanks for sharing
Kind regards

Excellent composition and perspective. Not sure that you could do much better than this shot and presentation. Fine work.

Perfect timing...I really like the angle you got this guy. I also like the simplicity of the single twig and blurred background, it's very effective at singling out the subject. Nicely done, Ian.

One item on my "bucket list" is to visit every National Park in the United States. So far, 2 are in the book. Please check out my website for all my shots from Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks.

Wow this is an amazing shot. Great angle and composition. Looks like it was quite a show down. It must have been hard to get this close to the dragon's front. Usually they are hard to sneak up on. Again amazing job Lan.
