Wood Frog Courtship
by Mark Seaver
Here's a look at a male wood frog (Rana sylvatica) in courtship mode floating in the runoff control pond next door in early spring. In addition to the wild courting antics, the fine reflections of the early spring colors make this few days in early spring a fun time. (7D2, 180mm macro L, 1/320s, f/8, iso 400, tripod)

4 commentsI do like how you multi purposed the 180mm Macro lens into usage here also.
I too find I have 3 crossover lenses including a 140mm Macro. I use a 37mm Fisheye, 140mm Macro, & 150mm Soft Focus under a variety of conditions.
Not sure if a polarizer would have aided this shot, but probably little chance to engage that with the quick action taking place.
Our "Best of 2016" can entail some interesting stories along with some excellent images too. For you I would think you enjoy a collection of scenes from both your East coast and Montana homes during this last year.
