Nice little brev chameleon. Used to bred them (different sp.) a while back. Cool little guys. Their tongues are about 9" long! :!:

Thanks Pri and Toby.
Toby- The shaky ones were where I used more natural light and weren't the extreme closeups I generally favour with flash. Under the canopy it's often quite difficult to get the amount of proper light necessary for proper exposure so it can sometimes be a small miracle when everything works out well! The dappling of light and the nature of the uneven light that changes, often in extremes as one moves about under the canopy is truly a challenge, and wreaks havoc on getting consistently good results.

Cheers,
Paul

I've never seen a fungus weevil before so I don't know what to compare to... but that thing is pretty cool looking!
