If you look closely, you will seen that this gecko has round pads for his toes, whereas iguanas have claws. Also, his eyes are adapted to the dark, where as iguanas have slits for pupils.
And, even more fundamentally, geckos are nocturnal. This photo was taken at night, with the gecko hanging upside down on the ceiling of out balcony/patio.
This week we have photos of the people of Guatemala posted on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site.

With his eyes glowing like that he almost doesn't look real but, I know he is.
Living decorations for your balcony!
Very informative post. They are great little bug eaters.
Great shot. The eyes look alien.
We used to have a couple of them leaving in our 17th floor apartment in New Delhi. Nice guys, they were eating all the mosquitoes.
