Tiny Frog (ちび蛙)


I was just looking back through some of my old pictures from my old point and shoot Kyocera digital camera that I had before I bought my D70. I found this one. This little frog was tiny. Look at the thin stem of the leaf he is sitting on! He was living in a friend's pot-plant on his balcony overlooking a rice field.

この蛙は一眼レフを買う前に使ってたカメラで撮った。本当に小さい蛙だった。親指と同じサイズ!座ってるところ(葉)を見て!友達のバルコニーの鉢植えに住んでた。家の隣にはたんぼがあったから毎年そこまでやってきてたようだ。

Anything that moves!

Well as I said, I love to get out and take photos, but the subjects I get the most fun out of (and find most challenging) are living things. Anything that moves, scuttles, runs, crawls, jumps, squirms, rolls or flies. If I can find it, I'll have a crack at catching it on film (or memory card!). So todays picture is of a small frog I found at the edge of a rice paddy in the middle of the inaka (countryside) in Hiroshima Prefecture. I love the way it's little head is just peaking up out of the water.
