This is so a lucky shot. I had to slowly move in to get close enough for this shot, and magically he was posed like a débutante in her senior photo. ...and in a flash he was gone, and refused to let me get that close again. :(

Nice composition and amazing clarity! His little hand grasping the leaf adds some cuteness to the shot.

Much more mood than the usual DPC lizard shot. I like it.
