very cute, more animal and less fingure would be an improvement

That's good although I'm not sure there's much more animal/reptile to show!

Just as an aside maybe it would emphasise the image if the background was black?

Here's a quick and rough idea. If you take a bit of time and trace/mask the finger a bit better than me it might work out.

I toned the red down a little and also opened up the eye detail.

Also re-sizing it as per the second image might help to fit the screen a bit better

Irrespective, a very unusual example and a keeper for sure

Im not a photographer, but from a layman's point of view, that's a great shot indeed.

Thanks for the feedback and comments.

Vulcan I like what you did with the black background, I doubt I'd be able to get it any better though (even if I did know how ).

I bounced the built in flash off the wall behind the lizard and was a bit too close resulting in too much "flare"?

Having fun playing around with this old camera now, will be getting a Macro lens for the 450D in the near future.

Cheers

very good technically, would turn it around to show the finger nail IMO.
