Hyla Arborea (14)

Hello there. My first photo in TN. This is a "Rana de San Antonio"(Hyla arborea),found nearby Picos de Europa, in the north of Spain. The place is called "Montaņa Palentina" and it is part of the Cantabrian Mountain range. We were at 1600 m above sea level and there was a little river full of these frogs. In Spain this specie is catalogued to be "almost in danger of extincion". It needs clear and unpolluted water to breed and survive.

To minimize the distracting effect of the busy background, I used Photoshop and did 3 things: I cropped out a bit of the left side, used the Gaussian blur to blur the background, and sharpened the frog a bit. Hope you like it.
