Lovely capture, Eileen. Great focus and I like the dark background which accentuates the vivid green of the lizard. Nice cropping with good balance. I find that him sitting on the metal fence higlights the contrast between humanity and nature. Taylor

I really like this photo, and especially because of the very strong composition and the light. I also like a lot the limited pallet, and the green lizard is standing out from the background in the most excellent way.

Your photo is pin sharp showing clear and well defined details in the lizard, and I really like the way the light is falling on him. The exposure is excellent in this shot, and I like the contrasts between light and shadow.

The lizard is really well placed within the frame to show almost the whole length of its tail, and the photo is neatly cropped. Great shot with an excellent DOFF.

Comment from Dick Lee Shia


Indeed, this green lizard is a great poser who seems to know what part of the frame needs to be filled up by his 'photogenic' back view.
With head awkwardly twisted,as if saying, "Do I look good now?",this green cutie strikes a contrasting pose to these old water pipes--a vibrant coloration against a rustic backdrop.
The side lighting casts some soft shadows which add dramatic highlights to this aesthetic conceptualization.
However, Eileen crops the tail tip maybe for some valid reasons...

    hahaha.. i love the way you word your comments. I cropped becuase I did not have the vision to include it in the first place. Another of my many eccentricities. ;)

    Okay, acceptable reason: Sheer eccentricity! LOL!!!
    Thank you too Eileen!

Fantastic photo! If I had a six I would give this one a six indeed! Perfect composition. Amazing lighting! The object that he sits on adds so much interest to the photo, as most are not found on structures like this but on something more natural. Colors are vibrant.. the forms that are in the design (the cold metal) lends to the "freeze" moment of this lizard. Excellent job!

Comment from Gerasimos


I love the impact and contrast of this image both in terms of color and the texture of the metal post the lizard is climbing on. Your large signature helps the composition but without it I think one would question the composition. The lizard is an extremely strong element and is on the left of the image plus he/she is looking to the left as well. The right side of the image is left struggling to contain the eye.

Excellent shot. Concise and sharp image. Love the stark green against the silver post.
Good composition and clarity.
Lighting and shadow effect is spot on.

A beautiful contrast between the subject and the background. He is indeed quite a poser :) Nicely composed with good clarity and lighting. Well done.
