Crested Gecko

This is a shot of a Crested Gecko.I would like to hear you like and dislikes.

It is always a pleasure to see your works as all are excellent, and this photo is not an exception from that rule, therefore it is as good as a 7 as always, however I have some suggestions based on my personal taste.

In this photo, the warm background, the tree trunk and to some extent the gecko have very clos color tones, which steals the show of the gecko. I would suggest to change the background color, and even adjust the colors to some extent.

Also it would be good to crop the bottom of the tree trunk and add some emty space at the top, the frame is beautiful on this photo.

I did some work on it but I didn't add the frame, so please let me know how do you find these suggestions good or bad?

Hi Chris,

This is beautiful and with superb details and composition.

I like the vignetting and the monochromatic tone.

I looked at Nader's suggestion and I too prefer your version.

Take care!

What's not to like?  The Gecko and the perch really work with each other here to  make it a very creative piece of work.

Keep it up Bro.

Well, all the other accolades are well deserved, but I, like Anne, like her smile.... Mike

Excellent ! Nice tones, perfect focus and position.  And it made me smile !
