Behind The Lens
Location
I took this photo in my friend's garage. The frogs came in their thousands where we lived so I took photos of them every evening. This one was sitting on the back of a swing chair and he sat ever so still for me to shoot nice and close.Time
Most of the frogs came out at dusk and stayed around all night to eat bugs from the lights. I took this photo in the early twilight.Lighting
There was a fluorescent light above where I shot this but I edited the photo to suit the mood of the picture.Equipment
My phone took this picture! Samsung A50.Inspiration
Frogs!Editing
I always edit my favourite shots, unless they quite obviously don't need it. The most important part is taking a good photo to begin with. This photo was just a fiddle with contrast and brightness with a touch of sharpening.In my camera bag
I don't have a bag! I just freelance with my phone camera. I can get the angles and composition I need a lot better with a hand held device.Feedback
Take lots of shots and stay very still. The focus changes with every movement and frogs move quickly!
