Looks ready to run if that leaf makes a move….
Or if I did. 🙂

Haha… yes keep very still Janet if you want that photo…
Wonderful B&W! I’m putting my money on the leaf. One shiver and lizard will run. 😉
Agreed!
I’m pretty sure you’re right. 🙂
janet
Haha! Good one!

Very nice B&W shot.
Thanks, Dan. Happy Wednesday.

I love how simple this is, just the lizard and the leaf and nothing else. Wonderful!
Thanks very much, Aixa. 🙂

Beautiful use of available light, Janet. I like the gradient of light and dark on the leaf contrasted with the direct sun on the lizard.

A little judicious edit helped that out, Allan. Thanks.
janet
Restraint is the most difficult part of editing photos, Janet, and you pulled it off.

Great photo! Did you have to wait ages, or did he appear right in front of you?
I don’t remember, Georgie. It was some time ago during a visit to my parents in Arizona. These little guys are all over.

The spare composition and use of negative space definitely implies a bit of tension here… But I would have to imagine that the lizard can’t be too worried about the composition. Seems like an easy pushover to me. 😉
He (or she?) was really just pausing for a moment. Then off for who knows where? 🙂

What a great standoff image. So much drama in the little worlds we often miss.
Simplicity and complexity at the same time.
Thanks. 😊
janet
Great shot!
Thanks, Su.
