[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
On my trip to Thailand, I was lucky to see & photographed the rarest species of Gekko (scientific name: Cyrtodactylus chanhomeae)in a limestone hill at night. It is endemic to Thailand and it is a shy gecko, only come out at night at run away once human get to close with it.

In order to photograph it, we have to catch it by hand...& it bites you once you caught it. We placed it on the wall of limestone gently & quickly photographed it. We released it back after photographing it, using flash light, hand held camera.
