WC 405 Seeking Direction

by Bill Fach

Gallery: Weekly ChallengePosted November 1, 2009122 views9 comments
Minolta M7
Minolta 100-400
Probably Provia

Some folks just can't see the obvious way to go. Saw this on one of my spring flower hunts a number of years ago and could not resist. I suspect this was a male lizard since he obviously did not want to ask for directions. This was my first EP sometime in 2002. For an inspirational and less tongue in cheek take on this shot go here. All comments welcome. >=))>

Clever lizard. Bill you are lucky that the lizard was green! Good contrast to the yellow board. :smile:

That's simply brilliant; "What, you mean this way?" Colour scheme is excellent, with only yellow, black and green. Fantastic capture!

How fun! I can imagine the lizard thinking. Okay, now what?

I liked the wisdom of the "here" site.

Thanks.
