This liitle frog was just sitting on the wheel rim of my bike when I came out in the morning.

So poignant! I'm glad you noticed it before you rode off. Good framing!

Love it! I have a soft spot for frogs and this is great image. I love the contrast of his brightness on the cool silver.

@badala: Thanks Badala - glad you liked it! It's probably my favorite photo that I've ever taken.

Fantastic composition! Did you use a telephoto or did you have to be very quiet as you approached?

@Trish: Thanks for your comment Trish. I think he was posing because he just sat there while I ran back inside for my camera, then got very close (my camera didn't have much of a zoom.) Actually, he wouldn't get off till I threatened to move my bike!
