Today I want to share with you another image of last week.
This is the typical subject one wants to find when walking in a trail looking for some macro opportunities.;)
Yes, I know, that is not the best perch I could use but there where not too many options available!
Canon 30D
Canon 100mm macro
Tripod
Flash light (to achieve focus)
AV
f/8
1/20sec
ISO 400
Flash as main light -3
Full frame, very minor PS work, some selective color and cloning. I was planning in clone out on catch light but decided to leave it as is.
Very nice use of flash, Juan. The perch doesn't bother me - I expect frogs to be in such places! The only thing is it doesn't seem to be as in focus as most of the frog. Lovely image, though - that eye is spectacular!
You are so lucky to live where these beautiful frogs occur naturally! :)
I like the comp and colors but it looks a bit dark, especially around the head. If you could also brighten up and sharpen the eye, I think that would help a lot.
I'm really looking forward to more of your local fauna shots.
