garden, may 3rd

 it's a lizard



 I wanted this image bad but AF was not happy, gotta come back with a tripod and a MF macro lens



 kind of a trash tree, but pretty flowers. I like that this one violates the rules of photography - your eyes bounce back and forth between the left and right side of the image
