Another from the Parambikumal collection. It is a full frame. The background on the original (9MB RAW) is plain black, but when I reduce the size (Photoshop) some spots appear and seem to be burnt. Wonder why . .

400D, Sigma APO 170-500, F6.3, 1/250, ISO 200

Dear Rajan,

This is not a chameleon, its a Garden Lizard, Calotes versicolor.

Looks like you need to rework on the post processing of the image. It can be sharper and levels need to be worked on.

Regards,
Aditya

Not sure about the BG, will have to see the RAW file before commenting on it. You need to pull the highlights here.

Agree with Aditya regarding the ID.
