This is really an interesting lizard. There is another one that is similar in the challenge. Are these a type of lizard one keeps for a pet? It is really a pretty color. You did a good job capturing the texture of the skin.

Good choice of black and white for this portrait ... it gives more strengh to those beautiful eyes.

Other than some background noise which gives the impression of the thing being in front of glass, this is fine work. Good light, good capture thereof. There's an odd sense of lacking sharpness that goes as soon as one focusses on any area, so that may only be the light: or perhaps a lack of the true black that one expects in such a technically perfect image. But excellent detail, and some sense of texture too.

If I didn't know better, I'd think that Anthony was trying to wish me away into the corn field.

Good DOF. I'm not sure that I like the arms reaching out of the frame, but it does seem to hint at a reason for his penetrating stare. Although I'm not typically a fan of selective desaturation, desaturating everything but his eyes might have given this image that extra kick needed to score within the top 30%.

Looks like to much dodging on the eyes

Overall sharpness is lacking. Did you do a post processing sharpening on this after you resized it? A lot of times a light unsharp mask after resize will bring back the original pop you had at full size.
