EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the elusive beauty of the Small-scaled Bearded Dragon (Pogona microlepidota) in its natural habitat at Theda Station, Australia. With countless hours spent searching for this rare Kimberley endemic, it was a momentous occasion for photographer Henry Cook to finally encounter this small species. Found exclusively on sandstone platforms in the north Kimberley region of Western Australia, these dragons are often spotted at night, peacefully perched on low shrubs. Despite their diminutive size - growing only up to 30cm long - they possess an undeniable allure that is beautifully showcased in this image. The photograph showcases the dragon's intricate scales and mesmerizing gaze as it looks away into the distance. Bathed in warm sunlight, every detail is brought to life against a stunning backdrop of Australian wilderness. As we admire this snapshot of wildlife photography excellence, let us appreciate not only the skillful composition but also the dedication required to capture such a remarkable creature. The Small-scaled Bearded Dragon reminds us of nature's ability to surprise and delight even after extensive exploration. This image serves as a testament to both its rarity and inherent beauty within our vast animal kingdom.
