Default Lace Goanna

Captured this gorgeous goanna sunning himself up a tree whilst camping in the bush. Was wonderful to get shots of such a prehistoric looking creature. I'd love critique on my composition specifically but obviously any other comments are appreciated.

Unique perspective here. Some might say the foot in the foreground is distracting, but it did lead my eye down to the body and back up. It gave me a sense of being close to the lizard.
