Lizard Pixels

I've been waiting to catch this green lizard on a white wall. Finally caught him with my 105mm with a 12mm extension tube. His back reminds me of a sensor with photosites. Looks like he has a few busted pixels.

Cool looking shots! I really like the shot of the lizard's head!

Nice shots, papa
​Like.

Great lizard shot. I have started a lizard porn collection and have a couple of entries already.

My house is like jurassic park. Go out the back or front door and at least 3 lizards scamper off.

yeah pic 3 is ace, especially at that angle it works really well.
which extension tubes(s) do you have and how much difference does it make on a 105mm?

Those buggers are like trying to catch a fly with chopsticks. Like it a lot.

I have the Kenko tubes (set of three, 12mm, 20mm and 36mm). You can use them in any combination to increase the image projected on your sensor. So depending on what combination you use will dictate the magnification. Just using the 12mm tube gives a noticable increase. Using all three gives it considerable magnification. Using any of them changes your focusing distance so you have to account for that. And lighting can be tough also.

I bet he has less dust on his sensor than my D600. haha. jk. Send him to Nikon to get his pixels fixed. lol
