You know, I can't believe this photos were taken from behind glass. The fact that there's no glare is just really impressive for me.

Another fantastic lizard! I thought Oberammergau was famous for its Passion Plays at Easter time - but they also seem to have a quite remarkable reptile collection. As usual, very well done Manuela! The detail is fantastic which is not always quite possible through glass!

I signed in and out, in and out - but still people had lost me. Then I noticed this evening when typing a post on someone's blog, that there was no web site address when I was posting. I typed it into the text field there manually, and after that it stayed - so there absolutely has to be a link now!!!!
