Green Tree Frog

Not quite at range of macro, but close enough, about 5 feet away. This tree frog was on a sawgrass blade in Jean Lafitte NP a couple years ago.

Olympus E-1, ZD 50-200 at 200 near minimum focus, morning light

I also like the diagonal composition. The softness of the light and the detail is just wonderful. Great job focusing on the eyes. :toast:

I like that everything in the image (except the eyes) is all one color-various tones. Very pleasing

Beautiful shot. I like the composition, the different shades of green, and all the details you can see on the frog's skin. Congrats on the EP :toast:
