MACROPHOTOGRAPHY - A FROG IN FEBRUARY

in #nature6 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!

Yes sire! ✌️😀

odd...I've never thought to use love and frog in the same sentence.
How thoughtless of me.

Very good, if in local language we are called with "cangguek po'p"

Interesting. Thank you.

I also have a toad, but I do not dare to hold, if papa-pepper really a brave.

Most are not bad to hold.

Such great photos! I didn't see him in the proof photo... I think he blended in with the tree.

LOL - C'mon man!

I like the photo of you and the frog on your nose the best...

Thank you, he smelled like a winner!

What a cute little guy! The frog is cool too lol!

LOL! Too funny!

terrific & encouraging!

Hello steemit

Your macro photography skill are awesome and i really like the last picture of this post😂😂

I'm trying to learn, and I'm glad that you enjoyed the last photo!

Wow ... you are not afraid of the frogs that cause the source of this disease, you very dare put your frog on nose. Happy working @papa-pepper😊

No disease from this frog!

Thank god😊

Honestly any kind of tree frog would be pretty cool for me to see! Awesome macro shots :).

This is such a cure frog i just love this little animal

Even small, simple things have breathtaking beauty. Nice job with the photography.

hahaha ,, laugh I see it,
I am very amused by this frog.

Very cool photography I want to be like that

Though am not a fan of amphibians, this creature like chameleon-changes color with temperature or substrate color. Their call is more melodic than the Cope's

That proof made me laugh. Haha. You have infected me with the proof of a thing as i even used it in my last post. Hahaha. You captured the image so well. You really brought the beauty to full glare. Well done Papa.

Thats a great pic ! Nice to se in the morning before work ! ;)
