Hard to imagine an iguana as beautiful, but he is. Good creative way to show his wrinkles in duplicate. Great shot. Take care, Deanna

I have a same situation on one of my lizard pictures! He is in a jar and the face is reflecting from the wall of it! This one is a beauty comparing to mine though, has wonderful colors!

Best regards Christal!

Christal...  Since beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I'm sure this guy finds himself a handsome dude indeed.  Just the right angle and amount of detail... Mike

I thought this was a rather unusual shot, but apparently most people aren't too impressed with it.  Maybe I am because I know how hard I worked to get it just right.  I had to take a lot of shots because this iguana was repeatedly banging his head (hard) on this glass wall.  I thought he was going to beat his brains out!  I tried unsuccessfully to find a zoo keeper to ask why it was doing that.  At any rate, thanks for giving this image a little 'love'.  :-)

I feel pretty.  Oh, so pretty....

Evidence of a resilient self-esteem.  It's rare that we can look full force in the mirror and still absolutely adore ourselves.

Brilliant shot and your hard work paid off. I still recommend participation at PN based on my experience. I have found that the positive comments quite often don't match up with the rates and the reasons are many. My immediate reaction is  that I love the details, the composition and mirror effect but on my monitor it was too light colored. I too am struggling with rates so I may not be the best person to offer an opinion so take my critique with a grain of salt.

While I like your version much better than mine, it isn't a true color of what he actually looked like.  The turquoise is a light color.  I suppose this guy needs to camouflage himself in the desert, so hence the lighter colorations.  I might add that I'm really excited about my new computer purchase, and I'll finally have a decent monitor.  It will 24", and I'll color calibrate it, so then I'll return and look at your suggestion again.  It may well be that I'm not seeing it correctly on this little Mac Book screen.  Thanks for your efforts, Tony!

I really like seeing the details of all the bumps and lumps of this lizard. The mirror effect gives it even more of a perspective of the look. Very cleverly done!
