For some reason, I was fascinated with the details of the rear leg of this Barred Tiger Salamander rear leg. I can see some whitish-gray areas that I suspect are the little guy's joints, revealed by his translucent skin. Not a flashy picture, just one I thought was interesting.

Great detail, Mike, well seen. Looks a bit like an inflated rubber glove.

A salamander with knuckles, would not have known they had knuckles. It is an interesting shot Mike, as Paul commented, it does remind one of an inflated surgical glove though or rubber glove.
