A more natural pose for your human model would have helped this shot a lot.

Nice use a the black bbackground - makes the hair and green lizards pop. Improvement area: 1) The closest lizard's face is just falling into shadow. 2) Shallow DOF make the back lizard soft. 3) The white spot at the end of the eyebrow does nothing for me. 4) The title - I'm probably wrong but don't think there's much bonding with this species.

Glad there are females around who aren't squeamish at the smaller versions of wildlife. You caught a nice situation here. Good luck.

reptiles are incapable of emotions

This is interesting. This image honestly isn't the boldest or most inspiring image here to me, and it doesn't make me think "strength" as much as others. However the composition and coloring has a unique look and feel that definitely is not "weak." It's got a different of "strength"; well done.

Wow, this really looks like a girl I know, but haven't seen in a while. Makes me wonder ;)

That's a bit of a stretch challenge-wise...

Great setup and the lightning seems fine, thou maybe you could have give it a longer exposure.

I think a tighter crop would help the strength of your composition (eliminating the label (?) lower left) and bringing me into the two faces (more emotional connection since that's what your title says to me)

nicely lit, nicely executed.

Hi,
I like the idea of bonding with animals, but don't really see lizards as loving, and loyal. Beyond that (and not marking down) the composition of the photo is weak.The man appears to be...?...sleeping and the lizard is just on his shoulder. I don't see love happening here...or bonding. I think your shot is okay but you need to work on your composition to better get the idea across to the viewer. This is meant to be helpful I hope it is.
