Martin, the Geico gecko, is shown around an Ecuadorian rainforest by a "cousin."
Since today is WORLD Lizard Day, I thought I'd feature one of the most famous (if not THE most famous) lizards in the world: Martin, the Geico gecko. Seems he is on "holiday" in Ecuador and is touring the local rainforests with a "cousin." [Thanks to AI]
It is a bit hard to see the photomask, but I actually used it twice. That lush rainforest was made even more lush by taking the original photo (from Unsplash) and "photomasking" a copy of it and putting it over the original picture, adding more foliage to the original picture. Then I "photomasked" the AI generated picture of Martin and "mate," and put that on the top of the pile, again adding a bit of lushness to the rainforest.
