Yep, More Frogs.

I am disgusted by litter, especially in a national park, but I have to say it came in handy today. Bullfrogs seem to like Crocs.

The heavily saturated shots were just after a rain and under heavy tree and brush cover. These were up to one second exposures. The darkness made focusing a chore, but really saturated the color. Fortunately frogs sit still fairly well (or they don't). I am getting a little motion blur on a number of shots, where the frog moved slightly, but I took plenty.

I did see one of the frogs slap a bug off his head for a small snack while I was looking through the lens. Well, actually it was so fast, I just saw a blur.

I went a bit overboard with the number of pictures posted this time. Oh well.

TUESDAY UPDATE: Wow, my legs are itching. I knew I was lunch for some mosquitoes but I now realize I was on the verge of being eaten alive!

A Butterfly. That's all.



Haven't been taking a lot of pictures lately. The few that I have taken, put nicely... let's just say... they stink.
