This is my first post/pictures posted on here. I got encouraged by Glen to put some on to get some criticism and or comments. I have had my camera since August and am slowly learning and gaining more confidence.

These were taken at the end of a long 9 hour and very testing shift last night. We got back to the Beat at 3am ready for bed and this big fella was sitting on the door step. Its been quite a while since i have seen a green frog and i am not sure that i have ever seen one quite so big. So i rushed off home and grabbed the camera for a few snaps. Must say that he made the end of the night a little more pleasant

Sorry... no criticism here... just some good old fashioned praise... love the colours and well done especially seeing as they were taken at night! :)

Great Capture. You need to look up Sliders images, it looks like he has a challenger. Welcome aboard.

I think its a white lipped green tree frog.

I used to have them visit the yard when I lived in Koppen Terrace, Mooroobool

What a great couple shots. Excellent first post.
My favourite is the first one, perfect focus, great colours and texture. It looks like he's wearing leather gloves :)

Welcome to the forum, I hope you enjoy your stay.

Cheers
