The Iguanas of Guayaquil

from £45.00

The Iguanas of Guayaquil captures one of the many iguanas I encountered in Guayaquil’s famous city park, where these remarkable reptiles move freely among the trees, paths and visitors. Resting across the textured bark, the iguana appears calm and ancient, its pale green body and patterned tail contrasting beautifully with the warm tones of the trunk.

This fine art photograph celebrates one of Guayaquil’s most memorable urban wildlife encounters — a place where nature sits unexpectedly at the heart of the city. Quiet, watchful and full of character, the image reflects the strange beauty of seeing these prehistoric-looking creatures living so comfortably among the everyday life of Ecuador’s largest city.

The chalky surface gives images a painterly quality and is especially popular among collectors of fine art and photography. Due to its cotton texture, it requires gentle handling at the edges.

A versatile paper that blends photographic sharpness with the elegance of fine art. The semi-gloss surface offers vibrant colour, high contrast, and fine detail, without the heavy shine of traditional photo papers.
