This lizard seemed comfortable with me getting up close with my camera.

What a cute little lizard, love how you caught the heart-shaped bites, isn't he a loving little thing, and the compo with with the green is excellent :)

@Lorraine: I am glad you find him cute too. He did not seem very afraid of me. Actually I wanted to post another image where he tilted his head and looked right at me but not all of his tail was in the shot. It was a tough decision. Thank you Lorraine.

It certainly does appear small dwarfed by the leaves. So nicely composed and presented.

Wow, this is incredible! I could never have taken this photo, because I would've been way too excited at even SEEING a lizard. :)

@e.: Thank you for the cheerful comment. I can understand how you feel. When I first moved here from the north I use to hop when walking because the lizards would run around as you walked, and I marveled at seeing them. Now they are natural to see around but I still adore and would never harm them. You should see them eat an ant.
