Lofty Sunbath

I am watching this lizard for a long time - two years or even more - but only today i finally had a chance to photograph him (her?): they're very sensible to any moving object and run away very fast.
Anyway, it became real thanks to my dad who knows when and why to keep still.

Two

This one was made just before the previous photograph, when the sun was a bit higher. Still used SB-600 to light up the lower part of the scene.

Hemerocallis lilio-asphodelus. This one was taken on sunset. I used an SB-600 set to -1.3 EV to light up the flowers when leaving the background dark.

The Night Watch
The night life in our garden.
Shot in darkness (4.30 AM) using SB-600. Yes, i know that the first one looks too dark, but i like it this way.

Natural Selection

I tried to capture this bee on white rose flowers, but the wind was too strong and disturbing. I almost gave up when the predator appeared. Then i witnessed this very dramatic scene.
