Green Wanderings

I spotted a gecko happily wandering around the beautiful back-lit yam leaves. Its sticky, gravity-defying powers are apparent here!

Thanks Tim for summing up this image so precisely - you are spot-on on your observation about opposites here. Not only does the gecko go against the direction of the growing plant, we can also see that there is an amazing contrast in size when it is compared to the huge yam leaves he makes his home in!

A study in opposites for me. the plant is so verdantly growing upward towards the light. Yet the gecko moves downward, away from the light.
