Description

Remember a few months ago when I went to Oregon? I took a LOT of pictures! I'll probably be showing you pictures from that trip for years to come! Before I left for my vacation, Doug told me to take pictures of a lizard for him. When Jill and I were wandering around at Smith Rock, Jill saw this little guy, and I was fortunate enough to get some great shots of him. He climbed up out of his hole, and sunned himself on the rock for a minute or so, and then scampered off. He was a great model - he came out slowly, stopping every few inches to make sure I was getting a good photo op. :) .......... I made this nice and big, so full view should be better.

Excellent pics! His camouflage is marvelous and you have captured it beautifully! I can almost see the heat waves shimmering above the rock!

You took a great couple of skillful clear shots of him, and yet I can see how his texture is so much like the rocks he walks on hiding him from unknown predators. well done Tara!

Yes, from above he must blend in beautifully with the surroundings making it difficult for airborne predators to spot him. Two excellent captures Tara and wonderful presentation. Superb work. Bravo!!!!!
