Walking up the stairway to the beach we found this little fellow relaxing in the near mid-day sun.

He posed nicely for me, although after 3 shots he got bored and ran off.

The original shows so much more detail than this small version, but having been away for the week and not knowing what the categories were, I wanted to find my first challenge submission. I'm just hoping I got the right Aperture/ISO/Shutter Speed numbers from my picture.

:-) Cute little guy. I like the shadows. If there had been a bit more color contrast I would have scored it higher.

For me, this picture does not really hold my attention. It may be that the lizard is a little blurry, but there is not much else for me to look at. Maybe shooting at a lower perspective would help?

Not really enough detail for me, perhaps a little shapening is in order. 5

If only you could have convinced him to bring his tail out into the sun, too! He looks like a very proud and good looking lizard.

Heavier processing may have helped this little guy stand out bit more. As is though he just doesnt have the wow power to stand up well in a FS>
