Lizard #3 finally a good shot

[Mrselfdestruct]

Mr. Lizard came to visit me again and I finally got a good shot. I edited it in photoshop and it brought the colors out more. C&C please.

P.S. Right before I shot this picture he told me he could save me loads of money on car insurance

Nice shot, I know how tricky they are to take. Nice colours and lighting.

good shot. how are they tricky to take a picture of? all they do is sit there?

[Mrselfdestruct]

Well... sometimes the lizards will run away if they know they're being watched, sometimes they will sit there. But I think the tricky part isn't taking the shot, but getting the shot to come out correct with the best colors.

Lovely shot- good focus on the eye and the textures are showing up better :)

Excellent shot Shane :) You're becoming addicted to macro, that's a good thing. Did you beat the g/f at monopoly last night ;)

hahaha, yeah, I beat her in monopoly and boy did I regret it. She was a sore loser. When we woke up the next morning she's like "I wanna play again, I know what I gotta do" as if it came to her in a dream, and I was beating her again and didn't wanna get yelled at. So I gave her all my money and let her put free hotels on everything, and she adventually won :) Gotta love her, lol.

Thanks for the comment Brian. I must say though, if it wasn't for Dave, this photo would be almost as bad as last time. Dave tought me a lot on how to get the color right in my photosI. Dave's right, I'm addicted to macro, just wait till I get some extension tubes, I won't be able to put the camera down. It'll be fused to my hands!

Hmm, I will hayve to measure one tonight if I can manage to get close enough without him running away. If I were to guess, I would say about 4 inches or so. Nothing super-macro like, but it's the best I can do with what I got, and I would rather stay in the macro forum's :) Thanks for your comment!
