Great job, and glad to see he got the mantis this time - I think he had missed it in the last photo. Two thumbs up on always having the most creative pics on here too!

More awesomeness
I love the creativity and quality of the photo. You're really good at those tongue shots.

I think your photos are awesome. i will admit to being one of the ones who just look at your pictures and don't post. Sorry I will do better.

Great pics as always. Kath.

I like the second picture better honestly. For the tongue shot, I like the ice cream one the best.

AMAZING photos!! Thanks for sharing them

Thanks guys. My latest project has been trying to get a long tongue shot of him in a more natural looking environment. Yesterday, I am pretty sure was the longest he has reached for something and I could tell I pressed the button at the correct moment, so naturally my camera didn't even fire. It was like the master flash was dead or something, but I fired off several immediately after and everything was working great, so it was just one of those things. I tried again about an hour ago and knew I missed, but here are the results anyway....two consecutive shots. I am using a backdrop I got at Petsmart that is intended for putting on the back of a terrarium.

your pictures look like I could reach out a touch your cham. They are amazing.

Hope you save a mantis pair for the next generation / wave of photos I had more flowers hatch out last night. Nice pics!!!

Phenomenal.

Thanks.

That would sure be the smart thing to do, huh? I have regretted it in the past, so I probably will this time. I still have 17 left, so plenty of time to decide.

I LOVE your pics - someday I hope to get one of my cham that is 1/2 as good as one of yours - you need to make a coffee table book of all your awesome pics - I dont know what one is my favorite- but the " dead doll head" - I think is the strangest one- LOL I love them all - cant wait for more !!
