I think this IS a Ghekko but if I am wrong please feel free to correct me, the pic was taken at the Butterfly Fm in Stratford last year and the lighting was difficult he is under a ray lamp and you can if you have time see the original in V2 - many thanks for all c/c's on yesterdays upload always grateful for your time and appreciate your input, special thanks to Netta for awarding the picture with her UA gratefully received thankyou
Karen says Iguana and I think maybe right but Albert says Bearded Dragon
not sure about this any more offerings before I change the name??? thanks one and all
V3 is a heavier crop of the original following Lonely_Oryx suggestion thankyou John I can see this is better - why didnt I spot the obvious![]()

Good in b&w - it conveys patterns, textures, and gets rid of that distracting background colour.

Fred.
works well in Mono Ann but i think the coulours is a tad better

Great detail. I would tend to crop of some of the white growth on the LH side

colour or mono John?
V3 is much better Ann. The colour version for me.
V3 is the star.....
isnt this site wonderful ... opens our eyes all around!![]()
Look like an Iguana to me Ann but I am no expert, have to go for V3 with the tighter crop. excellent sharp capture!

I'd guess he was an Iguana...but whatever, it's a super shot, Ann, and though I go for the colour version, it's a very fine bit of mono work, and think he and you deserve my UA...![]()

wonderful shots everyone a stunner but i feel that wildlife should always be seen in colour ! it's only my personal preference not in sany way shape or form a criticism!
The colour versions have far greater impact IMHO, the detail, colours and textures in his scaly skin are terrific in v2 and v3
