Find a secluded spot and sleep by day......



but let your 'hair down' by night and party away

#1 is fu**in stunning. perfect subject isolation with no distractions and the colour pops out and slaps you across the chops.
beautiful.

In addition to what Rooz said, how did you get it to pose for you like that?

The look is one of sublime satisfaction.

Magic, Rel.

What the others said!

Only nit in the second is the out of focus blade of grass slightly obscuring the left arm.

thanks Rooz, Gary & Andrew

The graceful tree frogs were out in force yesterday, but during the day they find anywhere to sleep the day away before night fall - this one had luckily (for me) found an old dying leaf to sit on - this is how they sit, hunched up and 'chilled', so I just took the shot I can't take any credit for the shot at all really, just pressed the shutter

I agree about the OOF grass in the second shot, but I didn't want to disturb the frog - it was full throated and calling so I just ignored it

gotta love frogs

Only one word for them - stunning.

Your animal models are much better posers than my human ones!

Awesome photos!

sleep by day

until someone comes along with their dirty great big flash

Seriously though, I have to agree with others, these are both stunning images . Even the plant leaf/stalk on the right, that the frog (#2) is clutching to does not distract from the image!!

On the first image what is the circular shaped mark directly aft of the eye? ear maybe?

Thanks Geoff, Surenj & Biggerry - much appreciated

Biggerry, you are right - it is actually known as the 'tympanum', and refers to a hearing organ/gland in frogs and toads - a flat oval on both sides of a frog's head

Just wow Rel,
I really like the texture of his skin in the first.
#2 is patience at work again
Regards Colin

WOW! When do we get to see your pictorial coffee table book on frogs?

Indeed, #1 one of the best froggy shots I have seen, and #2 not that far behind.

a frog with it own little hammock ... cool

#1 is an absolute cracker - send it to Nat Geo or someplace similar!
