 I was just on my way out when I spotted this chameleon in the garden. Not having a submission for this challenge, I rushed inside for my camera. They really are shy creatures and usually head downwards or into cover when confronted with a large glass thing. But this one stayed hanging around the top of the bush long enough to be captured.
