Funny, I thought you started this discussion when you didn't AGF about the intentions of the voters. And yes, I'd hate to let it be if there was an unresolved issue. But you're more than happy to disappear and dig your head into the sand when you're actually asked to explain yourself, aren't you?

Blurring on tail and distracting background (white bits) - I thought I was viewing some form of optical illusion picture until I read the details as I just didn't see the animal... Still support though as once you know what ur looking for it is a good picture of an animal I had never seen so good

Try defocussing your eyes and looking at the thumbnail- you see a series of white triangles. They look like the focus of the picture. This feels much more BBC than Knowledge (XXG)- I suppose that's a compliment, but I'm not certain it's something we should be featuring. However, I realise how

because of the very light triangles. Camouflage per se is not bad. If the whole photo were occupied by a lizard-colored tree trunk or something like that, that would be fine. But here, the eyes are drawn to the triangles.

I'm not sure you should have been starting this discussion at all. Certainly by this point, Muhammad's nomination is suffering from the long discussion, if anything. But then you'd hate to just let it be, wouldn't you?
133:. Composition is interesting and eye catching. It's the sort of composition that you tend to see in wildlife photography competitions. Shame you didn't get it more straight-on, so that everything was in focus. 63:
Reptilian FPs are few and lizards seem to be doing well so here's another one. The only picture in its article. Previous image in article was of lower quality and probably misidentified( or juvenile)
296:
It's a very different image, of a different species, in a different part of the world. And I wouldn't actually say it's a better image anyway. So what point were you trying to make exactly?
378:
the picture, I just don't think it's really FPC material because of the distracting background. I, too, didn't actually realise I was looking at a lizard for a few seconds.

I think this is slightly but significantly below our standards, and if it were from any photographer that isn't an FPC regular, we almost certainly wouldn't promote it.

I agree the lizard is difficult to see at first but I think it's more camouflage in the setting than the background --

I recovered the sky colour from the white triangles. I hope the blue triangles are not distracting. --

Prefer edit slightly EV-wise, but still neutral, as I am not certain I can assess this properly.
