Ahhhhhhhh yes not an easy trick to do.......but if you just put your little webbed hands out like this.......and make sure your tummy has the right amount of folds in it......and smile real big.......you can do it too :rofl

Enjoy....... Skippy (Australia)

    Thank you 4labs...........I ended up soaking wet trying to take this photo.
    I had my pyjamas on cause it was quite early, figured I could take the frogs down the back yard in an open area where they would be easily seen if they tried to escape.

    So I tried to just kneel on a plastic bag, but I needed to get closer to the ground.....so I figured dang it I'm just gonna lay in the wet grass rolleyes1.gif so I did, and you think those frogs would sit together on the same piece of bark eek7.gif
    I'd get one on it then the other one would take off down the back yard, so I'd go after him, bring him back the other one would sit there till I put my camera to my face, and then that one would take off.......this went on for some time, then the Magpie flew in and decided I was gonna feed him/her frogs for breakfast rolleyes1.gif so I had to just fire off what I could and put them away before Maggie decided they were a treat for him/her rolleyes1.gif

    Like they say in the movies.....never work with kids or animals rolleyes1.gif
    Macro is not as easy as looks I tell ya, I think I would be correct in saying for just One successful Micro your keeper shots are a minimum.

    If it can walk, crawl, hop, jump, sway, or run ........trust me it will :lol4
    I'll never forget a post I saw on dpreview about how to tie a fly eek7.gif and I read it again, and as far as I'm concerned a FLY is a bug nod.gif
    I'm thinking is some kind of new American sport headscratch.gif how do you tie a flies legs ne_nau.gif and of what purpose is it to hog tie a Fly rolleyes1.gif danged if I could figure out why anyone would want to see a tutorial on how to Tie A Fly.
    Well HELLO Skippy :giggle did I feel stupid when I learnt they were those fishing lures nod.gif :haha :lol .....glad you liked the shot :D Skippy (Australia)
