[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Took this shot at the zoo in Rotterdam. I used the flash although there was glass in between. This is possible by putting the lens right up against the glass so not to get the reflection in the image.

Beautiful subject and image with excellent level of detail and vivid colors. The orange eye is amazing and really catches the view. I am glad that you chose a close a close-up instead of a full-body image and like how you isolated the subject from the background. The lighting is excellent and the presence of the glass in front of the lens is not at all obvious.

Excellent sharpness and good use of the flash, Pedro. The square crop works wonderfully well here. Beautiful detail of the textured skin and the eye.

die heeft niet alleen een opvallend oog maar eveneens als
getekende tanden !

Excellent colour you achieved Pedro. Wonderful detail too considering you shot through the glass. Well done!

Hi Pedro,
A very interesting and special picture, the greens are superb here, although the leaf in the foreground is a bit disturbing in my opinion. Also a bit of OE in the light areas can be observed. Nevertheless the beauty of the lizard’s head with the stunning orange eye is striking.

Good details here but the light of the flash is pretty harsh. IMHO this is one of the pictures that "anti-flash activists" like. A diffuser would have helped.

A very useful tips complementing your gorgeously sharp shot.

Not all green, indeed (nice title)... red against green, a very good color contrast which I liked very much, Pedro.
Thank you for sharing,
Ramdan
