Photography Tips.
It is too much to carry a camera bag with many lens when taking local wildlife photography.
I use one one zooms lens from 18mm to 250 mm, DSLR Canon camera. The tip is to use the setting to "P" Mode. This will be easier for amateurs to take good photographs of wildlife without having to figure out the shutter speed or aperture.
The follow images are taken with this zoom lens.
The regular and once-monthly clearing of the vines, creepers, grass and leaves from the railing and the nearby areas of Lentor Avenue/Yio Chu Kang Crescent result in the loss of habitat for this young Oriental Garden Lizard. He has no insects to hunt and survive. There are very few of such creatures nowadays, less than 5 in this area which is being developed into a major road. The lizard will become extinct as Singapore develops more land and build more.
Mar 20, 2020. Rare sighting of the oldest Oriental Garden Lizard seen by luck, being at the right place at the right time. How do I know? Its length is longer and its head is broader compared to the younger ones. (show photo side by side).
On the same day, at the Countryside Park Garden, there was a younger adult. Hunting.

As the habitat is lost owing to construction of the highway, these lizards are getting extinct.
Jun 4, 2020.
A good conditioned Oriental Garden Lizard is seen along Yio Chu Kang Crescent, opposite the Seletar Simpang River. He seemed to be shedding his old coat.

This Oriental Garden Lizard was not bothered with me taking videos and photographs. Once, he decided to hop down from the ropes. After that he went up the ropes and onto the barrier pole!
The following lizard could be the same one as the above on the barrier pole but on different dates.
