Portrait of the Prince
I found this guy in my garden after the rain. He was in a basket. I took a chance to make a portrait.

Behind The Lens
Location
The photo was taken in my full of life garden in Jaworzno, Poland. The frog was sitting in the bucket that collects rain water.Time
In the afternoon. I was wondering around with my camera looking for some bugs when I spotted the Prince Frog.Lighting
It was a cloudy day. Lightning conditions were poor but I decided to take this photo anyway.Equipment
It was shot with Canon Eos 1000D with standard 18-55mm lens that was included in the retail box. For stability I used the edge of the bucket.Inspiration
I had the feeling that the frog deserved to be commemorated with a poportrait. The Prince was looking at me with his beautiful big eye. I'm sure it was worth it.Editing
I only removed the colors in the RAW file to make this photo B&W. I want it to be more mysterious.In my camera bag
Frankly speaking I usually carry my phone (LG G4) with macro lens clip. But when I have more time I use my Canon 1000D, 18-55mm or 75-300mm lens and extension tubes. I love macro photography so I'm looking forward to buy a dedicated macro lens in the future.Feedback
Be creative with the world around you. I think the composition is worth more than high-end DSLRs.
