Was very careful to not get too close. And this shot gives you an idea of just how big it was:

These are all straight out of the camera, not even cropped....not sure what to do with them yet.

Cheers, Mick :) :) :)

I have an idea. It involves something big and heavy... like a large book.

Yep - we've had the spray going - just to make sure no younger ones got away. And we brought out a heavy size 7 which made sure he wasn't putting the bite on anyone.

Cool. I had a bunch under the pool yard chairs. I gave them the can and lighter treatment.
