    Playing Around

    After the kids got done hunting Easter Eggs at grandma's house I saw their iguana being forgotten in all the fun. I like the way this one turned out -- it's not the nicest of critters so I wasn't going to get it out of the cage.

    Doesn't their chin flap being extended indicate that they are angry?

    Nice but I think the whole image is a bit too brown.
    No, I DON'T need that.

    I like it. He looks like hes poseing for you. Hes crisp n clear and the backround is blurred , great contrast. I dont like how part of the cage is in the foreground. Is there anyway to retake the picture without it? and he is definatly givving you the evil eye.

    The extended chin flap means a)They're angry or b)They're trying to impress a potential mate.

    I wonder which one it is? ;)

    I know I'm not that cute. :blush2: I like how his body picked up the color of the red room. In the summer the inlaws move him outside in a shady spot next to the pool and by the end of summer he is a nice bright green. I'd love to get him out of the cage and get some nice shots -- I'm just not sure how long he'd sit for me and whomever is lucky enough to help.

    Yeah, it is brown. That is why I liked it. Last time I saw him was last summer and he was fairly green. Next time I'm over there I'll get my wife's little sister to pull him out for me.
