Behind The Lens
Location
We were in the Florida Keys. These are invasive species and were everywhere. The year before we saw very few. This time dozens. The tourists were feeding them and they seemed to come out of nowhere. This one was a little smaller and popped out the top of the shrubs and appeared to be afraid of the larger ones on the ground.Time
10:00 am on a very bright day.Lighting
I didn't have a lot of choice on lighting as these things were moving quickly.Equipment
Canon 5DMKII 70-200ISII hand heldInspiration
The Iguana's had so much variation in color, shape and texture and the brazenness got my attention.Editing
Lightroom and Photoshop to clean up some distracting items.In my camera bag

I shoot in all manual except AF. Take some test shots to make sure your ISO, Shutter and Aperture are giving you the results you want. If your camera allows tune the AF to the lens to get better focus.
