Image Description

these frogs are actually quite free to move about the environment. They are looked after by the caretakers of this establishment is not really a zoo. these
several acres are there For the protection of the species but this is their natural environment. It would be very difficult for anybody to find these tiny little amphibians on their own. The amphibians are also quite poisonous.

David, this is a very colorful little frog. It’s perch is also quite colorful. The flash does a great job of darkening the background to let this little one stand out. Those big red eyes are awesome.

I can see Pixar creating a film about this little dude if they got wind of your picture. It’s really cute and looks so expressive for what appears to be a tiny creature. I kind of wish the “knees” were in focus, but I’m sure that was nearly impossible to do. The fingers kind of make up for it. Wow! All fingers and toes, this frog is, and eyes! The plant it’s sitting on is spectacular as well (wondering if there is a Flora shot of that one!) and I love how it complements the frog’s eye color.

Wonderful image all the way around.
