Some macro frogs from last week in Costa Rica! First time really using the new 105mm Z Macro lens. I had picked it up a few weeks before the trip during the last Nikon sale and I'm glad I did. Absolutely blown away by how sharp it is! I feel like a little gets lost scaling it down to jpg, though, which doesn't do it full justice. I had a ton of fun with it and I think I'm going to have to do more dabbling in macro now.

Very nice set of images! Tripod used, I assume?

Thanks! And yup, except the granular poison frog which was moving around too much for a tripod. I went handheld for him.

Thanks! I'm also going to have to find some frogs and lizards and other macro subjects now that I'm home. It was so much fun, I want to keep at it.

As these frogs will tell you... "It's not easy being green!" And thank you!

Fantastic shots!

Thanks! I really liked that one too. His expression can say so much! I feel like that frog might be Up To Something. Either that, or he's clutching his froggy baby blanket, lol.
