Iguana

Uploaded: December 05, 2004

Description

f/6.3, 1/500, ISO 100, 280mm, mid afternoon sun
I was walking along a path at Fairchild Tropical Garden and I saw this iguana. By the time I changed to my telephoto lens, the iguana was aware of my presence. He moved to look me over and lower his thing (not sure what it's called). Fortunately, the tripod was set & I got this shot, and then I backed off.
