They don’t call it Horned for Nothing,
Desert Horned Lizard – Phrynosoma platyrhinos
The back of a Horned Lizard is a composition in texture, color, and pattern all in one.
When viewed with my lens only 2cm from the subject the animal becomes an art form that most people do not have the opportunity to appreciate in a living animal.
