This curious little visitor wandered into the darkroom one summer day, a blue belly lizard (Western Fence Lizard), who had obviously lost his way. After a brief detour into a plastic container (and a quick portrait session), he returned to the wild to chase bugs in peace.

But I couldn’t resist honoring him properly… with a cyanotype, of course. What else could capture that moment so perfectly?

Sometimes art walks right in the door - on four tiny feet.
