Smile Great Evening at a Pond!

I was having a lot of fun taking sunset pictures through trees and cattails. The frogs were nice also.

These are all such great shots. I was having difficulty deciding which one was my favorite. I thought that I had it narrowed down to the 1st (very original) and 2nd (lovely Bokeh), but the frog shot is so intimate, I was back to square one. I eventually conceded that I like them equally. Very evocative photos. Thanks so much for sharing!

All three photos are so different. The first is such a contrast in colours it made me squint. the second is very artistic, a beautiful blend of colours. But the third, I love Frogs, is just beautiful and you captured him so very well.
