Bully Froggy

I saw this amphibian in front of my house one evening. I immediately pulled out my camera phone and took several shots. When it refused to budge, I decided to get mt dslr and started shooting mr. frog.

I thought it wanted to be photographed for it did not move an inch all throughout the photo shoot.


I guess I was lucky to have it as model. It was so still and relaxed until the end of my shooting spree.

Thanks for looking.

Very interesting photos. #2 & #3 kinda look like Jabba the Hut!

too cool Rick! I love the first one and 2 & 3 are fantastic. They look like Jabba the Hut to me too!

I love all the detail in his eyes. I don't think I have ever looked at a frogs eyes for this long before. Maybe I'm waiting for him to turn into a prince.

The poor thing is so ugly, so why do I keep returning to have another look. I know, these are really great pictures, well done you.
