MACROPHOTOGRAPHY - A FROG IN FEBRUARY

in #nature7 years ago

Who doesn't love a Gray Treefrog when they see one?


The Gray Treefrog AKA Hyla versicolor is an incredible specimen and a longtime friend of Papa's. Since my hobbies and interests are fairly well known, the young son of @Jaguarlife called me over to show me something special today, and this was it! I've heard a lot of frogs already this year, but this is the first treefrog I've actually seen in 2018. Being a big fan of reptiles and amphibians, I get to see my little friends more months out of the year down here, and that's a blessing!

THE GRAY TREEFROG

I'm still figuring things out with the camera and macro lens, but I think that these are a few of my favorite photos from today. Enjoy them!

As always, I'm @papa-pepper and here's the proof:

The frog must be slow and friendly. You even managed to use leaves as a frame. Many people think that it's unhealthy to handle frogs and their urine can cause warts. I never believed it as a child but what do you think? Is it just a myth? Thanks for sharing. Nice shots by the way!

Your macro skillz are spot on! Cool frog...

Really? Thanks, I'm trying!

I think they're pretty good. Camera does the bulk of the work, but you still have to have interesting subject matter and proper lighting and setup. Outside lighting is always great...

Yeah, I thought it was probably the camera and lens too.

hahahahahahaa @papa-pepper, i really don't like frog but i am having a rethink with "your" frog here, this one sure looks "beautiful" Is that frog on your nose?

cute frog and good shot

Hello Papa

I just spotted where our difference lies — frogs. I hate them right from childhood because superstitious had it frogs cause human beings to develop swollen feet. Maybe true; may be false but that was the origin of my hatred for them. Hahaba

@eurogee of @euronation community

Please do not hate my frog.

Thanks for checking it out anyway, and for being honest!
