- Reason
- Highly aesthetic image, showing this lizard endemic to Dominica in a natural habitat setting. While not all parts of the body are sharp, the focus is well placed on the head. I was contemplating of nominating it since a while, and now that there are so many lizards running for the FP I thought is time to take the challenge.

- Oppose. Well, can't fault the reptile nom surge, but I'm not sure it is the best photo. The legs and tail are obscured and the environment is a bit lack-lustre. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 13:57, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose. The technical quality is there, but the obscuring rock in the forground stops the picture making that jump from being good to being great. J Milburn (talk) 17:18, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
- Support per nom. This picture is of great quality and it seems to me that even if "the environment is a bit lack-lustre," it deserves to be featured. I must have missed the rule where the picture had to have bright and pretty colors to make FP status. WiiWillieWiki 20:57, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
