Gecko

MichelleL

Have been on hols for the last few weeks (will post a great bee shot I got later on) and have a lot of reading to catch up on.

Anyway, got up this morning and went to the kitchen sink and found this Gecko - as I was about to rescue it, I thought, no - where's the camera!

The other half walks out a few minutes later to find me with the camera and flash bent over in the sink. "you right there?" was the question - but the look on his face said something else. I had to quickly explain that I haven't totally lost it but am in fact taking photo's of this gecko.




this one was taken with the flash heads (a and b) moved to a different position to give me this effect;




and



These are all hand held and are either a 1:1 or 1:2 to get all of the gecko in frame.
