Though I usually only photograph animals and birds that are wild and in their natural habitat, the opportunity to photograph some truly magnificent frogs was too good to miss.

The images below of various frogs and geckos are courtesy of Clayton Patilla who breeds them.  I believe I have done justice to the colour but need to improve the sharpness of some of the images and also to increase the depth of field.  They were taken using a macro lens, hence the very shallow depth of field, and the light level meant that the aperture was stopped open to f2.8. The photographs were all hand held.
