This was a very patient green frog. This was quite a time exposure for a living animal, about 2 seconds at f22. I wanted the depth of field to see the trees reflected in his eyes, which you may not see in this small version.

Two seconds?!? Excellent!

I really like the reflected texture in the slimy skin. Very cool.

Excellent shot Robert, and you got the face of the frog along with just the right amount of depth to make this a real standout.
The reflection in the eyes just adds more to it.
I sure like it!! 8)

Really neat image. I like the reflections. Certainly a cooperative model to hold still for a 2 sec exposure.
