Yes, leaves. This was all we saw for many minutes before we understood that one of those leaves neaby the canal was a frog. A perfect way to hide, indeed!
We decided to post this in the Flora gallery as we find that the frog is perfectly integrated and part of the shapes and lines of the scene.
Thanks for looking.

15 commentsThis is a total surprise when I opened up the image.
We tried to remove that leaf on the right side before the shot, but the frog was above the water and one leg of our tripod was almost in the canal (a very large canal, with deep and fast water!). So we couldn't manage to exluced it. And then we didn't try to clone it. We didn't find it too disturbing.
But after all your comments we tried to clone it. This is the result. It seems much better, even if our technique is not at top level.
Thank you again.

The repost looks neat.
BTW I added + repost to the title to alert viewers that you have added another image. You could add this in future by editing the original post
