Lovely shots - always remind me of the dinosaurs in one of those 1950/60 films where I think they stuck on bits to lizards like these and filmed them.

Hello Yacine I think it made it to macro as this was shot with 180 macro and full Kenko tube stack ... I think it just made it over the 1:1 ratio .... This Lizard is about as long as your index finger and thinner than your little finger... Shot is uncropped Thanks for the nice comment Take care

Thanks Brian ... It is funny you mention that I think you are right. Sad to say I am old enough to remember them It is the same for me with the Mantis, and The Predator movies ... Imitation is easier than imagination ... Take care pal

Good shots. The tiny scales make me wanna get closer. I wanna see the details around the head and especially the eyes. You just need a couple of feet of extension tubes, no problem And if you try to compensate with a stronger flash you might incinerate the little fellow which would leave no room for error. Ignore me.

@LordV, ah.. memories of Raquel Welch and her heaving bosoms, battling with lizards with bits stuck onto them, and to hell with the geological records.

Great shots of this little character, I'm surprised you got as close as you did, when they see me they disappear fast.
However I did get one, one time with his little territorial display/ Chin flag, pretty cool.
Your colors are great, which 180mm lens was that you were using, I am hazarding a guess at the Canon one.
Great detail.
