I like the first photo where the dark silhouette is contrasted against the sky. Did you use blu tack to get the gecko to stick to the walls? Or just tilt the camera?

He is alive  .

I saw geckos just like that in Hawaii!

Wonderful photos as always, Helge, and it's a very nice figure, too! So it's Gekko japonicus, then? Cool, so maybe it's even life-sized (should be around 100-120 mm including tail)?

....... Did you use blu tack to get the gecko to stick to the walls? Or just tilt the camera?

For some of the pics I used double faced adhesive tape on the Gecko's chest .

....... maybe it's even life-sized (should be around 100-120 mm including tail)?

The figure is 85 mm long, maybe it would get to 95 mm if it was fully strectched out ... a bit too small, but it doesn't have to be a grown-up .

Well, at least it's close to life-size... Phew, I hope the double-sided sticky tape did not stick too much to the figure's paint? Anyway, great idea to let it walk across the window and walls (and Pterodactylus kochi )!

No, no ... the Gecko doesn't weight much - I only had to use a mini piece of tape.
The Pterodactylus kochi is for size comparison. That one is life-sized .
