My Lizard shot from a few years back, before I found out you should try and focus on the eyes.

Didn't have my Marco lens so this is with my 18-250mm Sigma and it has been cropped some.

I don't know what I could do to improve the shot with a lizard this size (it was about three inches long)....

Please C+C....

Have you shot lizards with a macro? I've tried and I can't get anywhere near the little guys. They seem very skittish. Any tips?

I can't get close to them either I'm afraid... the damn things are so skittish....

My attempts have been more 'Close ups' then macro shots for that very reason.

I'm sure one of the other Macro Gurus in here can chime in and give some tips....
