A face only his momma could love

[JohnRostron]

A gorgeous portrait! Takes me back to my days at work. Our room was separated from the adjacent lab by a large cage containing a couple of large, green iguanas. My wife described herself as 'Margaret-behind-the-iguanas'.

Despite the proximity of such photogenic beasts, I never got round to photographing them!

What is the actual size of this creature Barbara? It looks big. I like the colours and the clear details

[Barbara Ponder]

Yes he needs a manicure
Nature is quite wonderful in its diversity

John, I would say so!

[Barbara Ponder]

I like the texture you got from here, Barbara...very sharp and pronounced. And I think he is ready for bed...

Thanks Izzie!

[Barbara Ponder]

Nice capture.

Thanks John!

Thanks John! I can not image looking at those mugs everyday although I would imagine they would grow on you.

Thanks Binnur! He is probably about 3 feet long with his tail maybe just a little bit more. His color is amazing I had never seen one like him, only the green ones.

Izzie, sometimes I think they are so ugly they are cute because of it.

Barbara ... I assume it is some sort of Lizard so you will just love, in a sick in the stomach way, this story of the way New Zealand has gone in recent years ...

That is a little crazy.

A great head shot...

Well neither my daughter nor myself are its mother. Yet we love its face. It is quite handsome in its own way. And what magnificent colours. Do you know what species? My daughter is really into lizards and wants one of these.
An excellent capture, sharp as a tack and I like the eye contact you have captured. Good post.

Thanks Ken! I tried to look up the species but did not have any luck It did say that sometimes green iguanas turn that bright orange at maturity.

A real nice capture but what a strange looking creature!
