You couldn’t get a much cuter picture of a frog than this photo!!
See all

Behind The Lens

Location

I was in Kansas City shooting with a friend that sells frogs,snakes and lizards.

Time

During the day in his basement!

Lighting

I used off camera flash. You would have to pay attention to which way they were turned to get their face.

Equipment

I used a 100 mm macro,

Inspiration

I love frogs!

Editing

Yes, I had to clone out all the highlights from the flash in the frogs skin.

In my camera bag

It depends on where I'm going! 100, 180' 24-70 , 70-200 , 200-400 canon lenses!

Feedback

Practice makes perfect!
