Loveable greens and textures. :-) I like the greens and pinks and the colour of the background, excellent DOF and exposure. Good luck. :-) (10)

The image is spectacular, but still has its problems. The blotchiness in the flower petals is very painterly, but very bothersome for a photo. More careful work during post processing would be appropriate. Th background color is PERFECT for the green lizzard. The title seems to imply it's not in a "natural environment?" A catchlight in the eye would add some pizzazz. OK - know my comments do sound like I'm very negative about your image - but the good news is that it's my favorite of the challenge.

Great texture and colors on the lizard. The only think hurting the image is the overexposed background imo.
