OK, thanks! Just finding my way around
I agree, Sandy. I've not shot frogs and toads much in the past, but I find their eyes fascinating. I like your reflection in the 2nd one. Looks like you were relatively far back for such a closeup. Nice capture!Beautiful shot!!!
I took a few pics of frogs today, and was amazed how clear the reflections were in their eyes!

D500 w/ Sigma 105mm f/2.8 macro * f/16, 1/50s, ISO-800.
I did a fair bit of processing to pull my reflection out. Processing in Lightroom, NIK, and probably a Topaz tool or two.

Thanks so much! yes, I was pretty far back, zoom extended to its max, 400mm. I actually went to the location looking for birds, so that was the lens I brought in my bicycle saddlebag. I didn't know I had captured myself until editing.I agree, Sandy. I've not shot frogs and toads much in the past, but I find their eyes fascinating. I like your reflection in the 2nd one.
