I used to keep these little fellas as pets (and very good, enjoyable ones too). He's an anolis (American Chameleon), or green anole. Lovely depiction of a male with his dewlap extended as a warning to you butting into his world!

Beautifully crisp and an excellent catch. I'd love to see this guy doing his stuff in street context too.

Really smart shot. Huge print, block mounted in an East End bar - this was made for it. What a delightfully offset, abstract photo.

Excellent! Wouldn't change a lot here. Great action, lovely textures and colour. On my screeen everything's gnarly!

What a great shot! Is this the way it was or a comp? Either way it's a lovely vibe.

Thanks Hugh - you've been through the same decision/critique process as me! Very helpful, and I'm glad you've seen what I saw. The 'bag-like image' is his reflection in a brass facia (visible clearly when large).

This image was particularly difficult due to image size. The detail in his face when large is great, but at this size the photo looks quite bland.

Thanks to all!

Alan - I was actually referring to standing in my garden after midnight doing this for a challenge.
: )
- but thank you for your kind words.

Gratitude Update

Thanks again for some kind words - and spending the time to view and consider the photo.

- Peterish, the shot was softly backlit with natural light and there was a lot of shadow on his front side. All I have done is lift some of that gloom with curves and levels. I also deepened the background (which was linear plank panels) to knock them right back and leave him to loom out of the darkness.

That is how I wanted him to look - and how it felt at the time.
