Many thanks, I like your interpretation. The only edit was the slight blueish tone in vsco.Great edit (?)
Maybe 3inches (9cm) nose to tail.How big is he (looks like fair-sized back legs tucked underneath) ? And was he right at the bottom of the compost heap? I’m thinking about temperature. I know some frogs & toads dig down in winter to hibernate without freezing, and some dig down in summer to hibernate without drying out. Some of them even shed skin and form frog versions of a cocoon. Amazing creatures.
I say I ‘know’, but the info came from a Maori elderwoman’s ‘knowing‘ : she told me the story when she gave me a ‘frog medicine’ pounamu. Magical /mystical explanations of natural phenomena are much more interesting to me than biology textbooks.
Loved that movie.
Yay ImageArt!! Thanks for my 2nd, John, and congrats to all who limbered up for this one.I loved ALL of the images posted this week. Although I feel some of you 'got' the theme more than others
But there has to be winners,
In 3rd place, we have Starzee on the ground with her Trail Walk
2nd place terse with that glorious beach scene Corcoran Beach peering through the dunes.
And this weeks winner and in my opinion the person that totally 'got' this weeks theme was ImageArt.
Several of her images could have won but I chose this one, the last posted this time around.

Pinnacles Desert - An image that needs no edits. I've always said location is key to most great images and this is no exception. Well done Ann.
