This little treefrog hitched his way to my garden on a bag of mulch from Lowe’s. Once discovered, I moved him over to the herb garden. He found a nice spot in the lavender. Time for a photo-op. I used a Canon 70-200 f/2.8 lens with 500D macro lens attachment. Sometimes I can handhold the shot, but this day was windy and my subject wasn’t moving too much. The camera was mounted on the tripod directly above the tree frog in the lavender. I took quite a few photos as it was quite a challenge to get the tree frog’s head into focus with such a shallow depth of field. I tried a higher f-stop without much success. I’m happy with the results and hope to see this tree frog around the garden more.
