 Inquisitive 9 year old child versus a cute little anole - Child will always come out on top - anole might as well "let go, let Kaleigh!"

My daughter called me in to see her "pet" which she'd put to bed in her little doll bed.

Snapped several pix. Waited 'til last minute to submit - cropped, resized, neat imaged, sharpened.

Okay I am completely clueless on this image. What's it got to do with the theme? I guess it would help if I knew what an Anole was/is -- a lizard I guess? The background (carpet) is distracting. The subject is slightly out of focus.

Interesting shot. A different POV might help the composition.

Great laugh! but I'm missing the connection. I do wonder how you got the anole to stay still...

Definitely the oddest entry. Aere any anoles harmed in the making of this picture? PETA hit teams want to know! Great colors, good call to light from the 3/4 mark. my only setup knock is shooting on the carpet; I think putting it all on a peice of plain paper would have made this shot even more David Lynch. Nice twisted work.
