Hi Karen Saxton. The basilisk was on the stairs of an ancient pyramid about half way, I was above it and the background is the green jungle all around the Pyramid. I was using a telephoto lens.
Thank you Kathleen and Mona.
How did you get the even green background?
Little cutey getting pretty ;)

Done. Thanks Ashley.
Beautiful photos! Don't forget the scientific name :)
