Thanks everyone!

Just need to wait for them to grow up.

Nice photos and chams.

Did you adjust the saturation or exposure at all? They look so bright....

 

[summoner12]

I would still like to know where they came from

Are these wild caught Justin?

Who are the parents, Justin?

Dude is a true F1. He was sired by a WC male, Crede, at LLC and a WC female.
Plasma was from FlChams. I think the sire was Inferno.
Caspian came from the Chameleon Company.

Holy freaking A!

Dude. DUDE. DUDE!!!

Second photo of Dude is extremely well shot, nicely focused and great composition.

The other photos are just as nice, and well focused (I know you use manual on macro lens).

I would give you + rep but it tells me that I can't give reputation for you because these photos are above and beyond.

WELL DONE.

Thanks V!
This photoshoot was a pain in the butt!
Like I told you earlier. I took around 250ish photos of 3 chameleons.
Out of all those photos, I got around six I actually liked.

..kick.....

Thank

...a$$....

You!!

Justin u knw u gotta post the pink...I get all stupid for the pinks

Give them some time. They are still young and have some coloring up to do.

Nice photos and chams.

Did you adjust the saturation or exposure at all? They look so bright....

These photos were shot "as is".
Kevin pointed out the -.67 exposure.
If it was set at 0.0, then the colors would be much brighter. I actually darkened the photo.
DSLR's like to overexpose, so I normally shoot at -.7 or -.1
I didn't do any editing to these pics. These are right out of the sensor on my camera.

Those animals are true eye candy. Thanks for sharing.

 

[addicted]

Wow Justin! You should be very proud of yourself, both for your Chams and your photography skills, excellent work

Did you the Nikon in-camera vivid control? One of the cool features I know your camera has.

 

[summoner12]

A what?

Did you the Nikon in-camera vivid control? One of the cool features I know your camera has.

What is this feature for Royden? I have a Canon EOS 3..... and its a film SLR...

 

[royden]

My buddy has a nikon dslr, he said there are a couple different color settings on the camera. One for portraits (subtle), nature (mid), and vivid (high saturation). I'm not positive, it's just been explained to me briefly.

 

[aplazbarr]

some of the best I've seen

 

[ciafardo 4]

i agree with davider ouch those colors burned a hole in the back of my head and the rays keep goin beautiful!

 

[Justin Carl]

Royden,

You are correct. Nikon offers several image optimizing options.

They include:
Normal: Suited for a wide variety of subjects.
Softer: Soften outlines and contrasts
Vivid: Contrast and saturation are increased for sharp, vivid pictures.
More vivid: Contrast and saturation are further increased for greater sharpness and vividness.
Portrait: Softens contrast and gives portraits a natural, three-demensional feel.
Custom: Adjust tones as desired
Black and white: Self explanatory

 

[royden]

Very Cool. wish my Canon had something similar...

heck maybe it does and I don't even know!!

 

[Chamgirl]

OMG how beautiful are they?!!
