Amazing capture of this beautiful little Iguana after a change of skin, Eileen. I love the pose you caught here as he pauses with his head up in the air. Excellent lighting and focus showing great detail in his markings. Lovely composition. Suzanne

Oh what a cool shot Eileen. I saw a lot of these guys in Mexico. They are so prehistorical looking. I think what really makes his photo is your after photo work. It has a unique look that takes it out of the ordinary. Well done Eileen ~ Steve

Very nice shot of the prehistoric monster. I love shooting iguana when they are around. They have such interesting textures. You have captured this on well in an alert stance. The textures of the skin and the details throughout are well shown. Good focus. Well seen.

Now that is wild and crazy Neon to me and I love it....Wow. Great pose. Brilliant light play on this. You seemed to take a leap on this one and got Wild on colors, not bad at all. Do more lease, go Neon more please! Great shot!

The iguana is always a very photogenic critter. I like the post treatments you used which seem to add interest and a slightly fun view. His eye is well focused as is the entire body. Well done and thank you for sharing.

This is a lovely shot of the Iguana! You have framed it well. The light and shadows, the colours and the composition have worked well. Good effort!

Comment from Paul G.


First and foremost, thank you for this picture. I have never seen an iguana this green. Almost blends with the grass. Never knew what they look like right after they shed. But now I do because of you. Congratulations on achieving a wonderful image. Focus, Framing and light management perfect. Well done.

This reminds mage shows the unique texture of these invasive lizards. I love the lime green coloring of this one and the interesting scale pattern Nader it's neck. The leathery folds in the peeling and shedding gray skin adds texture.
