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 mod...

Why I do what I do: I enjoy uplifting and inspiring others by capturing and creating beautiful photos and works of art. I print them on a variety of materials. About the prints: For paper prints, Somerset Velvet and Metallic are good choices. You can choose your own matting and frames to match your taste and decor. Frame-less options include metal, canvas, and acrylic. The prints all look outstanding on these types of materials. Are you interested in learning photography? Visit my BLOG at NEGATIVEMOMENTS.COM.
