[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Common (Brown) frog, or Rana temporaria is the most common frog in my region. It used to be common, because the extensive agricultural landscape from let's say, 100 years ago, had plenty of wet locations where this frog could breed. Nowadays it is more bound to local ponds and waters. The last 25 years thousands of these ponds have been dug for maily amphibians and insects. Hence the brown frog is still common.
I found this one underneath a stone in warm conditions in a former sandstone pit.

Salut Jacob,
jamais très facile de débusquer ce genre d'animaux. Belle prise aux teintes équilibrées, la netteté dans l'oeil est très bonne.

Hi Jacob

A really great shot of the frog. The focus is spot on and the composition very strong.
