Chameleon picture

My magic Cyprus moment was back in the spring this year when we had the pleasure of meeting a colourful chameleon.
Whilst walking with some friends in the pine forest near the pretty village of Lysos, we all stopped when my friend Jo spotted this gorgeous little creature. None of us had ever seen a chameleon close up so we weren't sure at first what we were looking at. But when he started to move very slowly, we realised that it was our first sighting and a great opportunity for some chameleon picture taking!
This little chameleon was the brightest green imaginable and he moved with such grace, rocking slightly back and forth before putting his next foot (or is it claw?) forward.
It really made my day!
