  • Lesser Antillean Iguana on St Eustasius in the Dutch Antilles.<br /> <br /> $200 unframed on Epson Premium Semi-Gloss or Gloas paper using Epson Ultrachrome K3 inks.<br /> <br /> Meet a critically endangered Iguana, found on only a few Caribbean Islands, this one on St Eustatius (Statia) in the Dutch Antilles. Only a few hundred survive on the island, and they are difficult to locate and even more difficult to photograph, as they live in trees and move slowly and quietly. So I was particularly fortunate after a few days to find this maturing juvenile at close quarters and in a good position.<br /> <br /> This image has been donated to STANAPA, the National Park on the island, who didn’t have a photo of the Iguana they could display. A copy was also donated to Waimari Primary School. This image has been accepted in four international exhibitions in 2011 and is published in NZ Camera 2012 due out in February.<br /> <br /> The key points for the sharpness of this photo are focus, good light and use of a polarising filter to eliminate any specular highlights. It was handheld at 1/160th of a second with image stabilisation at 190mm focal length, but I braced myself to help steady the shot.
