    These guys are so brightly colored they almost look fake. I like the texture and lichens on the rock as well as the lizard's placement in the frame.

    Agamas are wonderfully coloured, but rarely pose in places you can see them.

    This is a great pose just a slight pity he was not on top. Great rock texture.

    I like the diagonal line and the texture of the rock which along with the very nice bg really makes this image. The lizard looks a little washed out and I wonder if you used the s/h tool to drop the shadow on its chest? Maybe my monitor's fault, who can tell. Very nice.

    Hilary picked up on the diagonal and all on the great rock and BG. I was not sure such a small subject was going to work in this framing looking at the threa icon, but it works out well, good composition.
