Here's a nice headshot of a Costa Rican lizard from my last workshop. Not sure about the species ID. Even though my workshops emphasize birds, I always enjoy getting up close with those exotic reptiles!
That really pops! I particularly like the fact that the eye is locked with mine and demands that attention be held! Lovely bokeh: soft green reall complements the colors of the animal. Congrats!
Doug, this is fantastic! As already mentioned, the eye really makes this shot. I think a slight contrast boost might really put this one over the top, although it's pretty much there already! :)
Doug, what an awesome image! That eye really does draw us right in. One thing you might look at is to take a bit off the left side - kind of get his nose closer to the ULC by taking a tiny piece off the top and a bit more off the right side. You don't want the nose banging into the frame but if it were closer to the edge I think the eye would find the "triangle" interesting.
Hey, Doug. Looks very nice. Good light and BG!:) This is the helmet-headed iguana (aka casque-headed lizard), Corytophanes cristatus, one of my favorite herp subjects here in Costa Rica.
