It's the most perfect embodiment of a frog I could imagine..especially from where I sit in the middle of Texas.
So when are we going to Peru?
A purely quintessential image if I do say so myself :)

Hope your return will be a lengthy one Paul, your fine photographers eye and play with colours is again very evident in this superb frontal portrait of a lovely hylid specimen. The black BG greatly emphasizes the beauty of the image and helps to create a nice 3-D effect.
TFS and cheers,

Hello,
a beautiful and sharp picture of this exotic and strange creature resting on the colourful Heliconia.
It's a pity that you cut a small part of the frog's toe.
Best wishes and much more success on your trip,
Peter

Hi Paul,
great posting! An eyecatcher, strictly composed, crispy clear details on a fascinating creature in lush tropical primary colours - a marvellous feast for the eyes from madre de dios and our good friend Paul whom I missed so much for many months. One of the best things that could happen on a day like halloween. Thank you!
With best regards,
Peter

Hello Paul,

A very nice picture of this lovely frog! I like the color of the fruit (for the green part) to the color of the animal's skin. The leg position is also very interesting. Excellent exposition and pov! The only thing is that I found the picture a little bit too cropped. I would like to see more space in front of the fruit, and also below in order to see the whole digit correctly.

A very good picture, though!

TFS,

Michel

Haha... Here's looking straight back at you.
Gotta love those eyes.
What a great pose.
Fantastic colors and details.
Can't decide what I like more: the eyes or the toes.
Great to see you back.
TFS. : )

Hi Frog Dude

Wonderful it is, this first "small" step and the second "small" step shouldn't be that
difficult. The world and we here at TrekNature are holding our breath in anticipation.
Howard has already increased his steps and we are enjoying it all the way. So, what
say you? Seems like the ugly abdominal copyright monster have not devoured any
Trekkies as yet.

It is great to see this little frog. It's the same magic stuff I've appreciated so much in
the past and which I'm missing so much in the present. Looks like he was squinting
his eyes at you – maybe it was his way to try to tell you something (chuckle). Anyway,
you know this shot is technically superb, all in a class of its own. So, you don't need
me telling you that. Oops, I just did tell you that, but I'm sure you will believe me.

Great to see a posting from you MF and TFS.
Regards
Loot

Hi Paul,

Fantastic shot, excellent presentation of this tropical species. The way You captured him is very elegant, the black background makes awesome contrast with the colorful leave and the frog. Beautiful job. Bravo.

Although we didn't met here on TN previously, I'm glad You're posting here again (sometimes), because those few pics which You uploaded are perfect all. Like the ones of Howard.

Best regards from Hungary (Europe), László

Cores maravilhosas, contraste, textura, tensão e foco, além de uma composição belissima devido ao jogo de linhas do reptil e vegetal, parece uma helicônia...LINDO!!!

Dear Paul,

I truly have run out of adjectives to describe what I feel , when I view your wondrous work.

This little jewel is actually heartwarming, and I never thought I would use this expression in connection with a frog.; thanks for sharing, and I have added your work to my theme "frogs"

Greetings from the Tzaneen Dam in Limpopo, South Africa
