This is a cracking image, but would have been even better if the face had been more in focus rather than the back. A very hard subject to photograph (I know I have a couple of Geko Lizards) so really well done!

Nice shot if this had been spot on focus wise would have been good for an advert of some kind.

Hi,
When i looked at this image, i wasn't sure if focus was a problem as the wood the animal is sat on seems well defined below the snout. I've had a look at other images of the same and it is a focus problem rather than variation in the animals pattern which is what i assumed, or rather hoped. Guess i was a bit distracted by the raised forelimb as it made me smile.
If i ever work out how to reduce jpeg's to less than 125kb i'll attach a copy.

Sharp learning curves are fine with me.
