There's a very large Asian water monitor at a close by pet shop. He's called Alexander the Great, and he usually stays in his enclosure, which is a converted walk in closet thing. Well, last time I was there I got lucky, he was free roaming. I didn't use any zoom on these photos, just my macro lens.
