I took the extension tubes, my biggest telephoto lense, and a tripod for a walk just before the rain started. Bugs seemed scarce today, but the anoles were out and capturing minute insects for their repast. Notice the attempt by the anole in the third image trying to match the color of the desert rose trunk. Please try the downloads.

We've had such warm weather lately that the lizards here must think it's summer again. Love these closeups, Jim, and love your clever captions.

How 'big' is your biggest telephoto lens & how much extension did you add?

Thanks
