Get A Closeup Of My Scaly Side - Mr. Lizard Portraits [5 images]

in photography •  8 years ago 

I've been pretty quiet on Steemit recently, haven't been out taking photos much. Decided that I needed to 'break the spell' and head into the garden this afternoon.

Who did I find but my trusty Barbados Green Lizards, always around ready to pose for me.
This one was pretty brave, stayed very still, although a little bit cautious. I was able to get right up onto him, a few inches from the lens.

Canon SL1, 100mm Macro + Raynox DC250 2.5x Magnification Filter, and Macro ring light

I think they came out pretty well.

Lovely photos. Followed :D

Beautifully done. I love the sharpness, colours and the composition is perfect too.

Great photos, great post congratulations

Crystal clear and great detail. Good job getting him to pose. They're quick and hard to capture, but you did a great job.

Amazing!
You're lucky to be able to get that close

Wow! These little guys are just stunning! Great captures, @jamtaylor - thank you for sharing :o)

Great composition!

cool, maybe you will be interested in my work

Really nice photos! Well done. Where is the herpetology guy when we need him?

Wow! Really cool lizards. I can't beleive you got that close to him without him scurrying away.

Hey I missed this. I've been taking the weekends off. In that third one I almost can see your reflection. Nice one.
