This image was captured in my back yard in Grand Cayman, which is filled with green anoles. This little one was perched in our papaya tree, waiting to eat the fruit flies coming to feast on the rotten papaya. I was captured by the color variation of the rotten to ripe to unripe papayas.

I took the photo from about 10-12 feet below the papaya bunch, with my Sony 70-200mm lens. Taken in the afternoon on an overcast day, I kept the natural light and rich deep colors, which contrasts with typical tropical Caribbean color palettes that come to mind. Very minimal post processing, just a crop, subtle exposure adjustment, and I chose to slightly bring out the pink and red tones in the rotten and ripe papayas to complement the deep green.
