A first for me on camera. Having seen lizards years ago this is the first time i've seen them in a long time. Taken from one of my local haunts. A common lizard, i think a female. I dont like the shadow, but it has the best catch light in the eye.

On windows 7 so my calibration is a bit off and my sharpening prog isnt working so with USM(sorry if its a little over sharpened).
Hi Paul, nice capture a little off on the post processing but nothing major.. A fine record shot of this female Viviparous (Common) lizard.. I really like this species and have quite a few shots of them but keep wanting more..
We used to have lots of these around but, like you, haven't seen one for a good few years. Lack of basking weather, I suspect. They are still around but not as visible as before. Nice image.

I think they are awkward to capture so you have done well here.
Major.
