Default The Male Lizard

Hi
I believe this is the MALE version of the common lizards we see slithering
around...?

Using my Nikon 200-400 1.4tc. , F18, ISO200, 1/8
Tripod.

Any good lens at its a high aperature setting
will allow sharp photos from head to tail :-).
If you go too high it may become soft. Tripod
mount is also critical unless you get very high
shutter speed.

The other key is to get as near as possible.
I spent 30 Min taking this guy .. every 10 min
I move closer a little. Until at the very last
time, it ran away as I got too close.

Then back to Processing, using shadow highlight
and special sharpening tools that focuses on
large edges and a final touch of Velvia film
simulation.

Taking the photo with a setup
is just 1 step. Processing is the final step.
