ugly?... i think its beautiful... you gotta be careful not to step on em as they are everywhere and blend into the hardened lave flows real well... great shot... i must have made a hundred trying to get the saltwater blowing out of the nostrils and i got one shot that was close to what i wanted but not quite...

Great capture. I wouldn't imagine the 1/2000 shutter speed was needed to stop motion blur for Iguanas?

No, it was needed to stop camera shake while balancing on a rock!

Very nice indeed.
You've captured the 'prehistoric' feel of this magnificent reptile very well.
