So it's the pointy nose that makes y'all lnow he is ambanja? I guess I never noticed more than the colors! I thought maybe nosey faly because of the light blue with white stripes plus the yellow around the eyes! I guess I need to start paying better attention to other details.

With Ambanjas yea, the rostral process is usually significantly longer. And I know the colors can look very similar to other locales but this falls under a pretty typical variety of Ambanja, the blue background with darker blue bars (usually with some red but not necessarily always.) We have a few like this on the forum, if I can find one of the photo threads I'll post it for you so you can see more examples.
Locales are tricky! It took me many months of looking through photos to become more familiar with each locale and then the variety within the locale, so definitely don't feel alone. Some animals still give me trouble every so often, to be honest.
Edit - Here's a thread. You can see a lot of them are very solid blue, with some much darker and some lighter. Some with more red and some with less. But you can see how much blue they can have. https://www.chameleonforums.com/blue-ambanjas-unite-90043/ Also, member Texas Ranger had one (who recently passed away) that was awesome, he had the baby blue background with like wine-red bars, so he would have been example of an Ambanja with the pale, nearly white background.
