Iguana - Visitor on Window Screen- July

How I did it -

During a warm spring evening in southern Florida, a local Iguana stopped by to visit. Using a Nikon 5000 with a 18 -200 VR lens, and shooting at 1000 speed I was able to capture this 3' Iguana climbing a window screen at our front door. Usually, I don't like a photographer to be included in a candid photo, but the reflection off the glass window and unique nature of the capture made me break this rule.

COMMENTS:

John Fatuzzo Unique effect for both subject and photographer.
Jerry Greenfield Unusual picture. I like the reflection of the photographer in the picture. It's different.
Debbie Perez First, you are very brave. If that was on my window, I would be long gone! The sharpness of scales(?) and eyes are excellent. I like the contrast of colors here, too. Very cool picture!
Lynn Pilewski I like that you used the reflection. The iguana is very vivid and detailed as is the screen it is on. Excellent shot. I'd have been thrilled to see this guy in person!
Margaret Schmidt Great shot. Tells a fun story instantly. Great detail and color on the lizard. Love the way the screen creates an almost black and white scene within the frame.
Howard Watts The iguana detail is just unbelievable. The texture is vivid. I'm torn between using the reflection or not. The photographgerk's picture makes it more like a snapshot. But on the other hand, it makes it such a unique picture.
