Okay, so maybe I need more things to amuse me, but I get a kick out of these shots that I took a few minutes ago of a brown anole lizard hanging out on the bricks in front of my house. The thing that I find amusing is that in each of the shots, you can clearly see my reflection in the lizard's eye of me taking the shots. I love getting tack sharp focus on eyeballs. Perhaps it was some kind of trauma I suffered as a child!

Thanks Ron - sometimes I forget everyone does not look at these photos on an iMac 27! Here are the first two repeated with the downloads.

Thanks, when I first came up on him, he was in some unusual light and I really liked the way it came out. I took two like that - here is the other:

Excellent set you can see the reflection really well on the download.

Thanks Jim - I guess I need to consider checking that box once in awhile. They all look so big on my iMac 27 that I assume that everyone has the same view which is not necessarily the case.

The pics you have uploaded are only 600 X 436 pixels and only 33kb. Without the store original being clicked, that's all anyone will see regardless of what monitor or PC they are viewing them on
I have a 23" IPS monitor and this is there actual size...

That's odd, they are multiple megabytes in size (at least as they sit on my hard drive ready for upload) and show up very large on my screen even on the UH site. On my screen, just in the window of UH, the photos are each almost 6 inches wide. In yours, the upload is 6 inches wide, but the photo is very tiny in the middle. I wonder why the discrepancy in how we see these (and in my case every other shot uploaded by members) shots?

These are very tack sharp, glad you are amusing yourself. I kind of chase these creatures, they just love to get into ones house.

This is what I see..unless the box is clicked I can't view it any larger...
