Description
This last post I took in the home of my good friends Juan and Maria del Mar. This salamandra (we say this name.. maybe you know the right name) is on wall during the night and close to the lamp waiting the mosquitos to eat. in many homes.. let alive this animals and not kill them, and is usual see a few close to you on wall if you are on the roof and dinner open air, Is funny looking how catch the mosquito, but maybe some people no eat quiet if see that looking from the wall to you.
Have a godo day. Hugs.

Pues esta se conoce como "gecko" en ingl, pero en espal, se conoce como "salamanquesa", de ahla confusi con "salamandra", la caul es otro lagarto completamente distinto. Muy buena la toma, porque estos son muy escurridizos.

Luis - you are becoming a master at these macro shots (actually rephrase - you ARE a master!!!) Awesome and well done!!! Lovely capture!! Really like the subtle greenish tones.. :)

The focus is perfect on this little guy. Very crisp detail on his face. I like it. Well done. In English we would classify it as a lizard because it lives on land and call it a gecko. We use the term salamander for amphibious species that live in water. I think (amorales) explained that in Spanish, lol.

OOOOOOOOOOH!!!! These are sooooooooo damn cute!!!! We had them in ever room we stayed in in Thailand. Except for one room...where this big ass scorpion must have eaten the gecko..sniff..sniff. We call em salamander by the way...so at times language aint an issue. #:O) Beautiful macro of this little fella. The DOF and focus is dead on! Awesome work buddy! Have a great weekend. #:o)

Wonderful photo. I love the way you got his face so clear and his toes are just remarkable. Thanks for the information on it too! Good capture.

En Espal decimos Salamanquesa a este tipo de animal, diferente a la lagartija que es otro cosa y parecida, pero no sabia si este nombre tambien es un uso coloquial de otra palabra. El diccionario traduce Salamanquesa como gecko, que quizas tambien incluye otro tipo de reptiles parecidos, a morales dice correcto en esta aclaraci. Gracias por vuestros comentarios. I try in english...( Maybe all of you know my english no is well). We say in spanish salamanquesa, but I thought could be slang also. Translator tell Salamnquesa= gecko, I think maybe gecko inculde also others type more. amorales say right also with his comment. Thak you so much for yout time and visit.

Beautiful capture with perfect dof, accentuating its captivating eyes. Amazing how these guys can run along walls as if they had glue under their feet. Excellent!
