Very good photo. Background looks great and subject is sharp where it counts. My favorite so far. 10. Finished voting and this should take the blue ribbon. Good luck.

Absolutely perfect. You've captured his defiant, malevolent, proud expression so well. The depth of field and sharpness, concentrated on his face and claws, make this what it is. I had predicted the blue to another entry, but I now change my mind....this is it!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/28/2006 04:42:54 PM
Wow! And I don't even like lizard or reptile pictures -- normally - but this one is spectacular. He looks downright noble. Its perfect!

Great clarity, wonderful pose.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

8 - Very good. Criticism; not much, the 'snout' in focus as well, maybe a 'composition' variation (depending what you had) with a little more space, perhaps on the left to incorporate the other OOF hind leg, not sure. Like the sharpness and definition in the claws - 'if only' more of the lizard had the same clarity, make this even better in my opinion, but obviously difficult.

Here's looking at you, kid! Wonderful shot - doesn't he/she look rather arrogant? Colour and detail are spot on. Have marked this high and hope you do well.

Nice detail, good colour. Thanks for sharing.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/25/2006 05:57:08 AM
I really like this. I think it would've been even better if you were able to move a little so that his head was turned relative to the camera a little more. As it is it's quite nice but could've been better with a little change in angle.

Great image

Like the title. Fits. Nice and sharp.

Shallow DOF works really well to isolate him from the lovely lush green background. I like the pose he's in and the detail/ light in the eye.
