I had a lot of fun using the full moon in various compositions while photographing this frog on a warm, still night in the Amazon earlier this year.

Best wishes,

Very fun image. I really like it. Was this all with just one exposure? I like the creative composition

Thank you very much! Yes, this is a single exposure. I set the camera manually to properly expose the moon, then using the pilot button on the flash, lit the frog from two different angles.
