Hi everybody,
My name is Dana Pommet and my wife’s name is Josephine. I was born in Gloucester, Massachusetts, in 1942, and except for a tour in the Navy, lived there for most of my life. I retired to Delray Beach, Florida in December 2000. We love to travel and photography goes hand and hand with that. I went digital about 5 years ago and started posting November 22, 2008. I have met so many wonderful people on RR and that makes this whole process so much more interesting than just posting photos. Thanks for all the comments and keep them coming.
Update  January 2012: After hiding and denying my mild Dyslexia, for most of my professional life, and now fighting with its advancement – I want to thank you all for putting up with my poor typing skills and spelling problems. I know that my spell checker hates me and I now depend completely on audio books rather then actually reading printed books.  Life marches on!  Â

Have would believe in the pre history my friend. These anomalous do not have to evolve/move like the others and It is very well for us. Cheer still superb catch of sight to of brought closer ((5++)) Ont se croirait en la pré- histoire mon ami . Ces annimaux n'ont pas évoluer comme les autres et c'est très bien pour nous . Bravo encore superbe prise de vue en rapprochée((5++))

Oh wow! What can I say other than that this is a stunning, gorgeous, beautiful, and wonderfully intimate shot of this thumbless wonder. Reptiles fascinate me and I have absolutely no idea why they aren't considered cuddly...yeah...okay...they stink and they don't really do much when it gets chilly...heck...they don't do much, but still...they're amazingly gorgeous! I love all of the splendid details, especially the chin spikes. This is a MUST ZOOM shot, especially if you're really into reptiles, which I am. WOW!!!! Amazing work! Beautifully intimate, up-close-and-personal work! I love this!

That's amazing. I've never gotten close enough to get a shot like this. Doesn't help that I live in Minnesota... lol. Nice job.

OK, I'm going to go a little weird here and admit that the first thing that fascinated me was his nostril. Don't ask me why, I haven't a clue. After studying it for a while I moved up to the three spikes above it and then over to his eye. There is no denying it, he is a very handsome fellow! Stunning capture! Wonderful detail and color. I love the patterns and colors of his skin! Truly wonderful shot! And you have 54 of this paragon? What riches!
