Yeh this was a baby one, probably about 70-80cm long (head to tail). He hung around for a while once he came down from the tree, wouldn't go away. My mum tried "shoo-ing" it off a few times but it kept coming back. Their dog found it and started chasing it while Mum was out in the gardens, and the goanna came running full sprint towards her! Luckily it found a tree to climb before it reached my Mum

Suffice to say, my Mum was very scared at that moment

Thanks, and I agree - even though ISO1600 is noisy, it's not too objectionable and it cleans up very well. I used Noise reduction in Photoshop and it got rid of most of it.
Thanks again.
