I posted this in wildlife. By the suggestion of dlplummer I am also posting it here.

We were in Tolum, Mexico last week.

This ladys husband wanted a picture, she didn't. Her husband kept telling her to kiss the iguana, she finally did.

Somebody bumped into me as I took the shot, I was lucky to get this.

    Very funny expressions you have there. The reptile does have interesting colour and your photography show exactly that!

    I heard someone say 22 pounds. I don't know if that is right or not.

    See you at Acadia in the fall.

    You know, you have a nice photo of her moment, but the lizard steals the show...what a nice shot. I'm not a big lizard fan, but this one is beautiful.

    Thanks for sharing.

    I was actually drawn to her facial expressions more than the iguana. Priceless! I love how you can see the fear in her eyes as she holds the thing! I think I'd have fainted at the size of it.

    I guess "the honeymoon's over", huh?

    Usually a husband tells his wife to kiss HIM!

    But what do I know? :D

    LOVE her expressions too!! Poor thing. At least she was a good sport.

    Wonder why he wanted her to kiss it!?!? Laughing.gif Looks like he was pushing his luck just getting her to hold it!

    As scared as she was at the start I was surprised when she kissed it.
