in #nature7 years ago

Hey everyone, something a little different for a change. @papa-pepper is one of the most inspirational Steemians and from day one I have been following him interacting with and entering his contests. Last week I came second in his contest with this https://steemit.com/life/@craigcryptoking/in-search-of-the-perfect-picture-200-snaps-and-20-minutes-later-it-happened

I shall be entering these pics again this week to his tourney that I took of a baby gecko shedding that I found in my house..

If you have not heard of @papa-pepper (Where have you been?) I would highly recommend following him, giving him love and support and taking part in his contests.. https://steemit.com/contest/@papa-pepper/papa-pepper-s-combination-photography-contest-week-26

His hands and feet look like that as he is just about finished shedding just the last few pieces almost off..

I captured a couple of really interesting angles here. If you zoom in on a few of these you can clearly see his skin and 'reptilian' like markings.

Geckos like this predominantly eat smaller insects, midges, flies, mosquitoes etc. I have a few of these in my house which I do love as they keep the mozzie count down which helps ;)
