This was the only one taken with just the overhead light of the tank (no in camera flash), ISO speed was 1600...

c&c on any of them is welcomed.. Im really trying to improve on my "wild life" photos.. it helps they are in my house I feel having the real plants has helped alot with making the photos look more realistic and wild

Very nice! I like the first one most of all.
Forgive my ignorance, is this frog poisonous?

ABCaptures

no they arent.. supposedly though their skin can cause some irritation if you touch them and rub your eyes but i havnt done it Thank you, they are red eye tree frogs, imported from costa rica

Lovely series - Esp like #1. You are right about the plants- I wouldn't have known they were indoors until I saw the glass shots.

thanks Brian.. its much better now that Ihave a front opening tank, before it was only top opening and i had to do all photos through glass.. they are much more sharp now that ive changed them over.

Skippy, thanks hun.. we have pet rats and bearded dragons too.. they all seem to "smile" at times.. they are alot of fun to photograph, much more forgiving than my sons lol

I was wondering how those froggies get at your house, I was thinking that you went outside. I take it you have them in a tank in the house now...
Love the shots, the first one has perfection. Good composition, sharp, colorful, great shot. The other ones are stunning, nice to see the belly colors. These little ones are so beautiful.
Love the shots, now you need to show us your bearded dragons...

photocat.. you cant find these frogs "outside" .. well maybe if you lived in the countrys that have them in the wild.. these were actually imported from costarica but they also come from other countries too. I had to order them from my reptile supplier. We already have the order out to get two more. I just wanted to make sure I could keep them alive before getting too many of them.

I will get the beardies photos in the works
