Oh that is a nice pose. The colours are nice. If possible a lower angle would have enhanced the composition further. Any particular reason for this pose? Thanks for sharing.

Nice. Interesting behaviour. I like the colours. A vertical framing would have been good too.

Cheers,

Lovely. I like the compo and the colours. Was a lower angle possible?

This pose is a part of the sitana's courtship ritual. The gular fan becomes brightly coloured only in the breeding season. This pose is also adopted to warn rivals, but I'm not sure whether it would do that to a human enemy. :D

Nice display of behaviour. A vertical would have been good as well. Could you get a lower angle shot as well?
