A Froggy Day

Playing with my new camera is so much fun. I found out that 14x zoom isn't the end of its tricks. I zoomed up to 38x. Don't ask me how it does it. I am not interested but just thrilled that it does it. These pictures are taken from
far away.

Some of these bullfrogs are so heavy that they have to find just the right size lilypad or risk sinking. Once securely on, they don't move for hours. I guess they just eat when a bug flies too close.
This is truly self indulgence. But I am loving the detail I can get from the bank.
I love to see their eyes as they skim the surface.

And for a change, a dragonfly hovers, looking so much like a helicopter. Pond fun!
Great froggy pictures!
ReplyDeleteI love your pix with the new camera. Especially the one of the frog resting on a lilypad!
ReplyDeleteGreat camara + great photographer = great pictures!
ReplyDeleteOhhh I love all of it...it's like wonderland....
ReplyDeleteI love your froggy friends! We have tree frogs, but generally they hide out until it rains. I don't blame them, since I don't even want to be out in the 90 degree daytime temps!
ReplyDeleteIt's so funny, my dog lays just like that frog.
ReplyDeletegreat frog pictures, cool camera
ReplyDeleteI do love the personalities in your pond. It is getting prettier and prettier!
ReplyDeleteI had a great froggy day yesterday myself. Aren't new cameras just the best! I love your water lily -- those colors would be fantastic in a quilt.
