Red-eyed Tree Frog – captive
The second installment of my Frogs of the World Workshop was held on Saturday April 30th and was quite successful. The participants had a great time capturing some amazing imagery of the frogs that were featured this time around. In a future post I will share some of the photos created my the participants of this workshop. The species that were featured for this workshop included:
- Red-eyed Tree Frog (native to Central America)
- Tomato Frog (native to Madagascar)
- Green Tree Frog (native to the southern USA)
- Vietnamese Moss Frog (native to Vietnam)
- Fire Belly Toad (native to Asia)
A small assortment of tropical plants, and a custom designed mini-pond provided the settings for natural-looking photos in the controlled environment. Here are a few of the images I created during the workshop. Each image was captured using the Nikon D800 with a Nikon 105mm Micro lens and the discontinued Nikon SB400 Speedlight attached to a Wimberely F-2 Macro Bracket. The exposure setting was ISO 100 with an aperture of f22 @ 1/60 sec.
Do remember to click on each image to see the larger, sharper version. Which is your favorite?

Spectacular images Andrew!
Thank-you Denise, much appreciated!
My first favorite is your first image of the Red-eyed Tree Frog. My 2nd favorite is the Tomato Frog with the reflection. And all the others are my third favorites! My first favorite name is Fire Belly Toad! What a super cool workshop!
Much appreciated Nancy!
Wow! They are so beautiful and cute! Fantastic pics! I really like Vietnamese Moss Frog.
Thank-you kindly!
I love both shots of the Vietnamese Moss Frog. It looks so strange and yet so amiable.
Thanks Jackson!
Hi Andrew, Thanks again for the wonderful opportunity to photograph the frogs with you last week. My favorite of yours is the Tomato Frog with his reflection off the rock. It is so artistic. I did return my flash bracket to Henry's and am now considering the Wimberley or a generic similar type. Have a great day, Regards, Ann
It was great to have you at the workshop Ann…you will love the Wimberley F-2 Macro Bracket!
Man, you’re like the Frog Jedi. YOWZA! 🙂
Hey Frank, thanks a ton for the kind words!
