 I took a trip to Shedd Aquarium on the 1st of august, mainly to see this guy, boy was he big, one of the best shots I had gotten of him, the lighting was difficult to work with there, always changing from exhibit to exhibit. for this picture, cropped, levels, resized.

WB seems totally off, way too cool/green for my taste.

A tighter crop with the Komodo Dragons head and the log in the background would be interesting to see.

Nice capture - The highlights are very distracting and there is a little too much foreground which throws the composition off.

the upper right corner lighting is realy distracting - a closer crop on the dragon may have helped
