Default Just a little creepy maybe?
I literally stumbled upon this toad outside of my house,I was able to get really close, as you can see my reflection in it's eye,the last pic is a hot air ballon passing directly over my house later in the day! Thanks for looking and any comments or critic, is greatly appreciated

Thanks --jbkaner

He is rather menacing looking in 1 & 2, but I love the close up... you can see the texture and colors of his skin. Balloon shot is cool too. Great shots.!

That third shot is so cool with your reflection in his eye. All of these are good!

Love the macro of the eye! Always good when you can see yourself.

Wow! Those are really close. I hope your camera didn't get any warts from the toad!
