The cat-gecko (Aeluroscalabotes felinus) has a very impudent facial expression, reminding of the Cheshire Cat from “Alice in Wonderland”. It takes its name although from the habit of curling up his tail, for covering itself when sleeping, similar to a cat. I found this species during a nightwalk through the Kubah Nationalpark on Borneo (Malaysia). I carefully placed an external flash under the leaf and gecko, so that still some parts of the gecko’s head were illuminated. A few centimeters in difference of the flash resulted in a completely differently illuminated picture.
