Photos of beardies

[Waterrat]

Photographers,
I have a request from a well-known overseas publisher for images of: Pogona microlepidota, P. minor, P. minima and also any albino Pogona to be used in a book on Bearded dragons.
The images must of professional quality and the animals positively identified as what they are. The fee is $80.- per image.
If you can help, PM me.

NO ONE?

I wonder if the members of the "Beardy" fraternity in this pet hobby even know what those names mean.
I guess Rex, Buster, Fido, Henry or just Beardy sound more familiar. :lol:

Hmm...I think "photos of professional quality" is what may put people off. Not sure how many people out there have got whiz bang cameras to take the shots you require. I think most of us have average shots.

What species is it?

I'm pretty sure Rex scientifically short for T-Rex... and I don't think they have frills... so the second one.

Buster has no beard / frill at all - misidentified water dragon.

Sorry mate but it doesn't help. The publisher is only after the species I named in the first post. Thanks anyway.

I would happily help but I dont have access to any of those species, and I am no professional. Good luck though, Im sure someone who keeps these species would love to get some photos published

You don't need to be a professional, the shots just have to be technically good, high resolution and generally of good quality.
By the way, the publisher may take more than one shot of each of the species, he snapped up 3 of my images of P. vitticeps.
