I just came back from a vacation in Hawaii (Big Island). Though I took my Canon gear (or some of it), I used my point and shoot a lot. I couldn't resist becoming mesmerized by the geckos there and snapped this shot, close up at breakfast (mine and his). Friends accused me of shooting a rubber toy. Nope, its real and I like its expression a lot. http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l312/candidviews/rsz_1DSC01346-2_filtereddt.jpg

Is that really a real gecko ?
Great capture of its expression. Like the oof crumbs in the foreground that he is obviously eyeing up

That has to be one of the funniest pictures I've seen in a while.

What a fantastic capture!

I really enjoyed this photo :)
(Wonder why he is standing with all his toes in the air? It's like "hey buddy, look what I can do, can you?")

This one made me laugh. With his toes in the air looks like he's saying "HOT HOT". I love the expression on his little face. It just makes me smile. Good shot.

Beautiful shot. Did he speak with a cockney accent and try to sell you some insurance?
