It's a beautiful animal. The patterns on its skin and in the eye are very interesting and eyecatching. Even the perch goes well with the animal. The background looks good too. However, I think I would definitely prefer a horizontal image here to include a bit more of the animal.

Cheers!

The strengths of thw last shot, but better background and softer light. Looking good!

Cool shot. Wonderful background, details and comp. This subject would work well as a horizontal comp too.
Very nice work.
Thanks for posting,

Excellent! No nits from me, and I think this little guy would look great in a vertical or horizontal.
Now, ............. get a real good close up of that eye! Wow!!

A really great shot and an enjoyable one. Although I would confess that my own personal taste would have been for a landscape format this image works well as it is presented so no real nits from me. To put it plainly just one fine image.

Regards
Matthew
