Reptile Photography: Bronze Grass Skink at Valparai
I am generally not into photographing reptiles, rather, as you would know I am more into capturing wildlife and birds in my camera’s lens. But, when an opportunity presents itself, I tend to photograph it irrespective of the subject type.
And when I say that the Bronze Grass Skink was not far away from me, I actually mean that it was about 2 feet from me. Its bronze body and scales were gleaming in the afternoon sun. Initially, there were a couple of them sunbathing, but one of them chose to hide, while the other was kind enough to pose for the camera.
The Bronze Grass Skink or the Bronze Mabuya is a species of skink that is found in Asia. It’s scientific name is ‘Eutropis macularia’.
