indeed an intense gaze:

frightened !!!

the poisen frog is ready to jump on the viewer...
"surfing" from the leaf, which looks like a green wave

so close, you could touch him, smell the poisen...

colours, depth of field, composition >
brilliant work
nothing else to say...just favourite


Marcus Lim  Thank you Melque for your poetry! It's much better than my photo!! Marcus

we have a pet red eye green tree frog and he is just lovely, this little fellow looks v. cranky! great capture!
Marcus Lim  Thanks Nicole. Of course he was cranky, with the lights popping non-stop he must have been most disorientated.
