This guy was extremely small i have use an extension tube 36mm here to get this full frame image , and with flash it would be a lot better but the batteries betrayed me so i had to use natural light , plus  i came face to face with a large snake around 1.60-1.80 meters looks like it wasn't my lucky day :)

Hi

Your good technique is showing here - a fine image, although that snake would probably had me running for cover


All the best

Fill would have helped, but it actually looks decent without, good shot.
