Albino Anole or just a Light Skinned Lizard we might never find out

Story

I am sure my neighbor didn't appreciate the flash on my camera flashing like crazy over and over almost at midnight, but I couldn't pass the opportunity to photograph what might be an albino anole. In any case, I went back to my computer to check if such a thing was a rare find and came with this recent forum post from Kingsnake forum where somebody also took pictures. After reading the post I hurried back and tried to catch it, but the thing ran into some bushes and became out of reach. I wouldn't normally run around in pajamas with a bottomless plastic 2 liter coke bottle and a broom but in my mind this might have been worth it. The bad thing is that the lizard might be so scared that it might never return.

I think I've seen the same

I think I've seen the same lizard. I live in Palm Beach Gardens and outside my apartment is a white concrete wall on which I would see 3-6 almost every night back in August and September. I wasn't sure if they were albino or if they were white because the wall was white. If I see them again I'll try to get a picture.
