With his tough stance and red and blue colouring, he could be mistaken for comic book hero Spiderman.
But on closer inspection the webslinger look-a-like is in fact a male lizard, who was spotted in Kenya.
Retired geography and biology teacher Jennifer Gold, 64, snapped the creature on her first ever trip to Africa.

and was taken aback with his distinctive look
The creature's red and blue colouring as well as his tough stance has seen him compared to Spiderman
She explained: 'We had left Nairobi early in the morning and travelled for over seven hours over the bumpiest,
roughest roads I have ever experienced!
'We finally arrived at an entrance gate for the Mara Conservancy and were waiting for our drivers to get clearance to enter.
'I spotted the bright coloured lizard that looked like a superhero in an aggressive stance and used it as an excuse to jump out and stretch my legs.
'We were only there for five minutes but my camera was right next to me so I thought I really should take a photo.
Mrs Gold was later told the lizard's macho stance and
bright colouring was his bid to try and attract a female mate
And Mrs Gold was later told the lizard's macho stance and bright colouring was his bid to try and attract a female mate.
She added: ''I had never seen such a lizard before. I later found during the breeding season the males develop strikingly coloured marking to attract the females.
'The Spiderman pose is also part of the mating ritual.
'The females remain camouflaged, however. One was so well hidden I almost sat on it on the rocks!'
