Field Notes

Description:

Medium-sized 'dragon' lizard.

Habitat:

Small patch of natural vegetation in area largely cleared.

Notes:

Noah has turned the photo so that it is not in the correct position. The lizard should be under the twig with the head above the tail. i.e. 90 degree right flip.
If someone can tell me how to correct this problem please let me know.
Location details from Pam who I think also pointed the lizard out to me.

Thanks Scott. I did mine on my computer and cropped it as wanted but Project Noah flipped it from the file on my computer. So Project Noah changed the view rather than my file getting it wrong.

I had to use another program. Any photo/illustration editing program will do it. I don't know why it flipped. Sometimes photos taken with a smartphone will do that. I don't know if it can happen sometimes with a conventional camera.

Thanks. Are there simple explanations somewhere as to how to do that? The photo was correct before I uploaded it.

I've rotated the photos 90 deg right. You may keep or delete from the now 4 photos, as you wish using edit mode. Cheers
