Description


A couple of anoles (similar to the gecko) cling to the glass on the window above our homes front entry - These guys can eat a serious amount of bugs each day so I am happy to have them!

*This is a view looking west - I captured this just prior to sunrise which provided the blue light spectrum.

Too bad you couldn't catch them cuddling like I did. LOL.. That was so cute. I made a cool composite out of it. They are fun little lizards. #11633704

The horizontal and vertical lines add so much to the pictures beautiful look. The black on blue is a gorgeous color combo. Love the shape of the anoles, their body positions, and silhouetted features. Beautiful looking work Jeff.
I pray that you, your family, and loved ones will be safe from hurricane Harvey. Keep us informed as best as you can. Take care my friend. #11633766
