So, yesterday I was sitting by a little pond on one of our local game preserves
when I heard a little frog croaking. It took me a while to figure out where he
was, and as it turned out, he was sitting about five feet from me.
I'm still amazed he didn't hop into the drink when I started shooting. I got as
close as I possibly could -- even closer than the F 50/1.7 would focus! The
little dude was about the size of a quarter. I was actually hoping to get a
shot of him hopping into the water, but he was a very patient little guy. He
finally did just as I was rising a bit to get a better angle, so I missed that
shot. But, I thought this one was a pretty good get.

Nice colors! Love it.
Looks like this guy - who also surprised ME by not moving for a few minutes.

Thanks, Charles!
Also, wow! What lens did you get that with? That's some extremely
impressive detail.
