Macro Moments: Week 21 – Claw
While on holiday in Australia a few years ago, I chanced on a lizard soaking up the sun on the back of a bench in the grounds of a hotel in the Hunter Valley. With these talons, there was no way it was about to fall off.
Nikon D300 with 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 kit lens at 55mm. 1/640 sec at f5.6 ISO 200. Cropped and edited in Lightroom.

Yikes! Thanks for another great entry.
🙂 Very Jurassic-looking!
Yes. Glad it was only a couple of feet long.
Fantasic, who was the owner? Looks like a monitor lizard? Congratulation on winning Susan’s Macro Moments | Week 21, well deserved! ☺ ©
Thank you very much. I don’t know what kind of lizard it was, I’m afraid, but it doesn’t look like a monitor. Ugly bugger, though.
Excellent shot!
