Hola Vicma,

Wish you and the ones you ar going with a great time in Africa.
Fifteen years without a Holliday is a long time indeed. I myself don't want to think of such long time withouth going on vacation.
Except for taking some rest ofcourse, I sure hope you will also have the time to take some great shots overthere and I'm looking foreward to get the change to look at them after you've returned.
By the way: Wonderful shot of the small Gecko.
Very well focused on the head and lovely light and details.
Very well done and Im looking foreward to your first African upload of the trip.. TFS!!!

Warm regards, Harry

Very interesting POV in this close-up image of a Lizard, Vicma.
I like the colour tone in this image.
Very good details on the upper body of the subject.
Well done and TFS.

Lovely capture of this cute gecko. Warm lighting and color tones are very nice.

Hola Víctor. Otra a tu puro estilo. Algunos no se si intencinadamente o no utilizais un ángulo, una técnica, unos colores que os delatan.
Angulo discutible para los puristas, pero necesario para crear el efecto del tronco.
Sin duda el color es el elemento sobresaliente a mi gusto. Un bello conjunto.
Gracias por tus amables comentarios.
Deseo que tengas un buen viaje. El estar 15 años sin vacaciones es positivo o negativo, depende como lleves tu trabajo y de que se trate jeje.
Que disfrutes de ese gran viaje y desde luego de las fotos. Ya nos contarás.
Un abrazo: Josep Ignasi.

Hello fiend Vicma!
What a beautiful gecko shot! All are perfect!
The texture of the trunk is also wonderful!
Have a nice vacation my friend!
We will miss you!
All the best!
