Timid frogs usually turn their backs or flee when approached. However, the frog captured in this shot seemed to say, "Take my picture!" as it faced me directly. By photographing it head-on, I was able to capture intricate details, such as the movement of its hands gripping the leaf and the expression on its face. The shot truly captures the frog in a model-like pose.
