Looking back at you

Chameleon eyes are to me fascinating. This male was looking back towards the camera with his left eye while the right was straight ahead! Wish I could have got both in the same photo.

It's freaky how the eyes swivel independently -- it looks totally unnatural. I like the catch light in the eye.

Perfect image for this week's theme John. Eyes are always the first thing I notice on Chameleons. Very cool

Neat look at a very intense eye surrounded by some fine colors and textures, John.
