pet frog macro pics - jim truscott - May 17, 2013
Had a pet frog for about 12 mths ..called it wally after the 'wheres wally' kids game.
It was hard to ever find in the bushes..lived on my old computer screen in outside cupboard most days. Went out about every 3rd night to eat .. Finally lost it in a cyclone .. went out and didn't come home .
Pics were taken when wally was busy eating bugs on my kitchen window .
One pic of wally being bitten by mosquito.. other rude pic...still not sure if boy or girl.
Maybe someone knows?
Frog was wild one from my garden. Is a native Johnson River white lipped.
Pics taken at my home in cairns Australia prior to arriving uk.

Interesting macro pics of a frog
Would love to shoot one of those someday. Care telling us your Camera settings here if you still got it? Thanks

Shot at f6.3 x 1/80 sec and iso's cranked up to 3,200.
Hand held shots and far as post process goes, they are usually pretty sharp with that lens anyway. Was a raw file so plenty of latitude to adjust shadows/ hi light though didn't need much.
In camera auto white balance worked quite well. I thought it may not have, with the loss of green spectrum in flouro lights.
Compared to some awkward macro pics... was easy shooting jim t

It did worked quite well on your white balance. Brings out those green and natural colors of the frog under it. Well done JIM

I think these are magnificent. They enlarge my world. I like the way Wally seems so patiently to accept the mosquito bite.

Nice froggy
I don't know if it's a girl or a boy, you can't say that by the pic..if it was a loud frog, then it was a boy. If wasn't, then it was a girl.I like the first one very much. It's clean, bright, sweet, even with the mosquito on her eye. Other ones are a bit too scientific for my taste
