Red-eyed tree frog has to be one of the most “unreal” looking frog that I have ever seen.  Just think green, red, blue. orange and yellow are all present on this frog.  The species has to be one of the most charismatic frog and for many this frog is the symbol of the rain forest and Costa Rica.

I photographed this frog under very controlled conditions and I really like the pose.

I hope you enjoyed the photo,

One of my favorite groups of animals to watch and photograph is frogs and other amphibians.  I took advantage of another photographer organizing a photoshoot with a large variety of these small frogs.  I really like this one as it seems to have several possible stories, to me it looks like this small frog may be having a bad day but is persistent and hangs in for the future.

I hope you enjoyed the photo,

I have been thinking about my dad a lot lately one of the main qualities he had that was persistence (maybe it was stubbornness).  When he decided that he wanted to accomplish something he worked towards that goal and not let anything get in his way.  I think this is one of the qualities that I picked up from him.

The image for this post is part of my project to photograph Monrovia Falls on a monthly basis.  Persistence has allowed me to continually find new photographs from the same places.  I really like this composition of Monrovia Falls and this trip was the first time I saw this composition.

I think this image reminds me of my dad since persistence lead me to this image.

Thanks for looking,

When Cynde and I were in Chicago last fall I walked around for several days looking for new photos and enjoying the architecture.  I really enjoyed seeing the contrasts in the different buildings and the styles of buildings over the years.  One of the things that I particularly enjoyed was the contrasts between the very ornate older buildings with the very modern all glass buildings that were much simpler.

We stayed near the new Trump Towers and I really liked how the very ornate older Wrigley Building contrasted with the extremely tall Trump Tower.

I hope you enjoyed the photo!

I have been working through my Bodie images to put together a series of photographs to put into a photobook.   As I walked around Bodie I found the old bank.  The main building has fallen and about the only thing left is the old vault.

I hope you enjoyed the photo!
