Thanks so much yeldarb,

It's really important to me to promote reptiles in a positive way. Only a couple of weeks ago a new friend was blown away that she was actually touching a bearded dragon let alone thinking he was 'great'. She couldn't wait to tell her nephew and anyone else that would listen I'm sure! haha My boy, Kami was very well behaved too and even approached her and cuddled into her leg so she though he was just like a dog! Completely blew her irrational thinking of reptiles out of the water!

No remote, just handheld + sometimes a Nikon R1 flash kit.
