    Yousif,

    This picture is actually, pretty good!

    My suggestions are few. Try to crop the image, so that the head of the lizard is in the top right third of the frame. Also, if possible, try to get a little more color, from the lizard (only).

    Great catch!!!

    Welcome to Dgrin Yousif and thank you for sharing your shot. Nice capture. I would have liked to see the shot taken from a much closer distance...or have it cropped in closer/tighter. Too much negative (open) space for me...but still not a bad shot.

    wave.gif Hiya, Yousif!

    That is a very nice photograph.

    Here are a few suggestions. Everything in the photograph is almost the same color. As a result, the lizard is not obvious. Also, there is a bit too much empty space above the lizard.

    But this is an interesting photograph! Thank you for posting it. I hope you post more photos. thumb.gif

    This is true, but it is also fixable. I attached my quick work on it, based on the methods here.

    Very nice capture and welcome Yousif. I think a slight more contrast, EV -0.33 and a tighter composition will help your picture.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Dick.

    nice! Yousif the fix looks good but i like the unfixed version better probably more true to life but that's just me.
