Info Created, uploaded and nominated by Slaunger -- Slaunger (talk) 21:45, 16 August 2014 (UTC)- Info The leopard anole (Anolis marmoratus speciosus in this case based on the location) is normally either bright green (male) or brown (female), but it can also change its color with mood and surroundings - a common characterisic of Anoles. This individual I found in a bush, in a village in the southern parts of Grande Terre, Guadeloupe, where I heard noise and found this little well camouflaged individual, which I guess must have been lurking for prey and/or defending its territory. It was difficult to get clean shots of the creature as it was moving fast when I came nearer. This shot is not perfect either as a leaf in the foreground slightly overlaps with the tip of its mouth, but I find it is mitigated by the difficult conditions of the shot. --Slaunger (talk) 21:45, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
Support -- Slaunger (talk) 21:45, 16 August 2014 (UTC)- Support Not sharp, but beautiful composition and colors, and big wow for me. And I prefer this over the numerous super easy sharp shots we find too much over here. - Benh (talk) 10:29, 17 August 2014 (UTC)
