Lovely image. The background in the top looks nice. It is nice and parallel to the sensor. Nicely done. Thanks for sharing.

Nice pose. The background looks like in a studio. The low angle enhances the composition further. Thanks for sharing.

These are complex creatures. Often feared, reviled, hated and killed. When we come to know that these creatures have remained virtually unchanged since prehistoric times and have survived, one gets a feeling of awe. Unfortunately, global warming is likely to seal their fate. Rise in incubation temperature, will affect the gender of the hatchlings.
