(Disclaimer: I took ALL the pictures here by myself, using SONY DSLR A900 with multiple lenses. Edited using Photoshop)
Evet wonder, how certain creature will look like if they are being viewed from a very close range? A telephoto or zoom lens , sometime macro lens would be a great assistant.
An ordinary iguana may look like Jabba The Hut of Starwars fame...
I had a collection of this reptiles’ portraits taken at various locations around our tropical country. What are featured here happened to be my all time favorites.
I love to see the details of their skin and scales which remided me of the jurassic creatures. Yes they are just like the stone aged dinosour, so scary and harmful. Maybe a very much smaller version.
Even though this one may look as if having sexy lips like actress Angelina Jolie, they are,actually not. Those are their tongue like other lizards family, waiting to be thrown out to catch flies or other flying insects as their food.
Other details that never fail to fascinate me are the compound eyes of a dragonfly....
Look at this one....
Or even at a closer look...
Here is another species of the ‘dragon,’, now in red colt and its even more striking compound eyes...
When I waa a little child, I used to relate the dragonflies to a helicopter because of the body shape.
There are a lot more in my photo stock to be shared, perhaps in my next postings.
