excellent shot and very creative use of b/w where the colors were probably spectacular as well. very nice focus and detail with the background well out of focus. the composition is quite strong, imo. well done. bumping up

Classic portrait. I like that you did it in black and white. Causes us to focus on the texture.

I'm such a sucker for reptiles. Nice shot. THe angle helps to create a nice sense of regalness

Nice up shot. It needs more contrast to really give it some POW. The sharpness could be brought up a tad as well.

Since I am lacking in technical skills, I cannot give helpful comments. I am strictly a photo buff who is trying to improve, but as to telling you what is wrong or right, I am in no position to say. I am simply voting based on whether I like the picture or not. Sorry, maybe someday I will be able to give helpful advice

Having seen these lizards in color I would have to wonder why you would chose to present in black and white. Awesome composition. Maybe just me. Good luck
