Re: Denizens of a Garden
Nice captures and it does look like a great space to spend some time.

Re: Denizens of a Garden
Great shots looks like an awesome place, I believe #3 is a Chinese Water Dragon but that only matters to a reptile lover. It appears to be the largest water dragon I've ever seen though.

Re: Denizens of a Garden
Lovely shots, especially the first, a beautiful example of the urban fox (for those who don't know Kew, it is on the outskirts of central London and very much suburbia)

Re: Denizens of a Garden
My favourite is #3, John...even if I do not like them, it is nice to photograph behind a glass enclosure. But that is just me. The fox looks good too. the peacock looks unreal.

Re: Denizens of a Garden
Thank you for all the comments, everyone. The presence of the fox surprised my - I was not expecting to see that, but I can see that the gardens are a perfect location of it. I first thought the iguana / Chinese Water dragon was a prop - until it moved.

Re: Denizens of a Garden
I also like the 3rd shot best as it appears sharp. Whatever it is, it is interesting and colorful. Looks like you found a great place to visit for photography.
