Man, that was like the hardest decision I've ever had to make it my life! They were all so good! I voted for number 2 though, the 'One skink open sleigh' won me over!

They are all adorable! #12 is either admiring baby Jesus or deciding how tasty of a snack he'd be! :rofl:

I thought about doing a nativity scene like #12...except the skink was going to play the role of baby Jesus. Then I thought it might be too sacrilegious.

Also, I already have my contest idea for next December. :nanny:
1.2.0 Irian Jayas - "Gargamel", "Gloria" aka "Lil Thang"
0.0.1 Tanimbar - "Pandora"
RIP "Popsicle"

I had to vote for #2, not only because it is a GREAT reptile shot, but for the sheer amount of work and awesome luck to have two animals cooperate like that! :shock: It looks like a commercial or something, just perfect. I know who that one is....... :lol:

heh, I could put my beardies in a crocks mouth and they'd just sit there. :hehe: they are so lazy...... But to get the skink to stay and get the picture with the tongue out, now that must have been a job. lol

It was a great shot, truely deserves to be recognized as well. :) I'm so glad 2nd and 3rd place pics get to be in the calender as well. There are so many great photos!!!

I laughed hard at this comment. I was thinking the same thing. I was admiring the hardwood floors and skinks this month!

I hope the contest doesn't turn into one picture being tauted against another. Besides, if anyone is going to win for getting animals to cooperate, IT'S ME!! :twisted: Try getting a 25 pound turkey with an attitude and a wild caught skink wearing said turkey's own feathers - held together with play-doh - to share 2 seconds together for a picture! :doh: :wall: :rofl:

I have to confess that I love both taking and viewing the contest pics. And thanks to Tigergenesis for her time, and everyone else who helps with prizes, etc. :thumbs:

So I figure that the combination of all these photos is basically a representation of Don and Jeanne's christmas so far :D
