Every year a tree frog hides near my garage. He surprises me when I go to open the door or unlock the padlock. On this day, I got the upper hand. I saw him before he could surprise me and I took his photo. He seemed a bit unimpressed by the look on his face.
Because of the lens that I was using, the depth of field was limited to a narrow band. You can see this by the blur near and far in the photo. I kept the focus on the frog's eyes, just as you are supposed to do when taking portraits of humans.
I didn't have to do much to this photo in post-processing as the lens I used was just spectacularly sharp and I focused it correctly.
It is nice to have a model like this tree frog that shows up for work every year. Same time. Same place. I'm sure I will work with him again.
