So I'm out in the yard and I see a male Texas Spiney Lizard up in a tree, about 8 or 9 feet off the ground. I go inside and grab the camera with the flash attached. The flash has a small box on it to soften the effect. I play with intensity and I believe wound up on 1/2 intensity for this shot. The lens I had is an 18-135mm Sony (on a Sony camera) and at full zoom. The first image is the original, the second is cropped with some minimal post processing.
I grabbed the flash as the sun was to my 10 or 11 o'clock which put me on the shadow side of the subject. Without really thinking when I saw the lizard I put the flash on the camera as I knew it would help, and it did. Not perfect but for my feeble attempt I was pretty pleased with the result.
