    Default Male Reed Frog

    Male Reed Frog- Okavango Delta.
    Something different from me here.
    Upon initial inspection when one is in a Mokoro on the delta, these guys can be quite difficult to
    spot, hiding along the shady side of some very thin reeds, but once you get your eye in they can be seen more easily.
    D3 70-200VR 1/1000s f/2.8 ISO400@105mm

    C & C most welcome

    Cheers
    Marc

    Certainly a different animal Marc:) The dark BG really helps lift the frog out of the picture.

    I might be even bolder and crop tighter. In addition, perhaps a different aperture might have also brought the front leg more into focus. Also, just looking at the BG there seems to be quite a bit of 'noise' contain in it, I just wonder if it has come from the conversion from RGB to sRGB? Sorry, don't mean to be picky, but it is something (if I am correct), suffer from from time to time too.:)

    All the best

    Excellent vibrant shot Marc. Little bit of polishing as suggested, will enhance further.

    Hi Marc,
    A unusual frog for me. I like the bright colours and the big eye. I guess there was some vegetation in the foreground, so the hind limbs of the frog didn't come out well. Why f2.8 aperture?

    Cheers,
