[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Chile has a large biodiversity of frogs, and one of the largest genuses is Eupsophus. This little guy was found in a peat, among the lichens you see beneath him. Luckily, I had sunny skies (something very rare in southern Chile). The picture was taken on Chiloé Island, at the Senda Darwin Biological Research Facility, where the foundation I work in does much of its field work. It's a small protected area of forest, peat bogs, and an ecological restoration area. We also do long term ecological research in forest dynamics and global change.
I hope you like it!!

Pablo.

Hola Pablo,
Interesant rana la que nos muestras, aunque tecnicamente la encuentro algo suave de foco y con escasa profundidad focal; de todos modos vale la pena la publicación.A seguir adelante

Nice shot Pablo.
Good focus on the eyes of the frog.
Exposure is excellent and sharpness good.
Would like to have seen a little more depth of field though.
In my opinion aperture of F8.0 of even one stop higher on F11 is better for an image like this.
The small branch coming from bottom right and pointing at the body of the frog is a little distracting.
Still a nice shot though.
Best regards, Harry
