One for the bird-lovers. The Steller's Jay - the official provincial bird of British Columbia. Beautiful bird to look at but annoying as hell to listen to. :P
Firethroat - an oscine passerine found in Asia.

The rest of them can be found here. Some of them are pictures of plants, but there are some great animal pics in here too!
That is beautiful!! Wow. 

Here’s a similar photo of some kind of chameleon (maybe Panther?)

Wonderful photo! I love the detail on that :D

Those workshops sound rather expensive, though. For that money, they'd better be very good!
