Woweeee Thes are awesome. The colours and detail are excellent. That guy is awesome.
I have to say Flavio. They are all great captures but the composition and angle of the shot in the first one is exceptional
This is excellent work my friend.

Dave.

Really good...I especially like the angle of the first one. That is a great shot.

Thanks Harsh,

These creatures are very shy but they also move very slow. I think they don't eat humans. So, yes! I did get very very close.

Slow moving or not, that's still a scary lizard to me.. and i dont think it's been conclusively proven that they dont attack/eat humans..

so, today's bravery award still goes to you..

Jake,
As they say: " good things come to those who wait".
And, man, was I patient until this guy decided to get into my frame.
I'm quite pleased with the result.
Thanks for you comments.

Flavio, three great shots, brilliant colours and I agree with a few others that the first is my favourite.

great shots - "in your frame" looks more like climbing down the barrell of your lens
