Photography tips:
To photograph Lehmann's Agama, it is advisable to use a 400mm lens or longer to capture details without getting too close. These lizards can be suspicious, so it's best to maintain a safe distance of about 5 m to avoid scaring them. Look for them in rocky, sunny areas where they like to bask. Natural morning or afternoon light can provide the best conditions to capture their colors and textures.
