I was leading a photo tour in the Galapagos Islands a couple years back and on the lip of a volcano there were a bunch of these guys. The color is incredible and you captured it perfectly in your shot. Great photography is not about being in the right place at the right time, it is about putting yourself in the right place at the right time.

I kick myself in the nuts all the time for selling that body and lens.
