Excellent! I love the variety and the dramatic, low angle. Killer sharp and great detail. I, for one, would like to know more about the equipment used, lighting, etc. Thanks!

I'd be interested in your lighting setup as well. Your froggies were a pleasure to view.

These are really captivating; I got lost savoring each image!

You did a great job with the portraits, especially given those wonderful but challenging settings.

Thanks for posting.

Thanks for looking and commenting, Cam, Lilki, Kim, Morris, Ron. Much appreciated.

Cam, Lilki - these were all taken with the Laowa 15mm at night.

More about this lens here: http://orionmystery.blogspot.my/2016/05/laowa-15mm-wide-angle-macro-lens.html

Lighting setup is similar to this: 70D, Laowa15, 270EX: http://orionmystery.blogspot.my/2012/12/melvyns-macro-rig.html

Wonderful series Kurt.

Not sure they are froggies though - they would have berets on

Fantastic series. All images just beautiful. To me a frog has a Winston Churchill type dignity especially when propped up on his forearms, all your captures show great dignity of this creature.

Amazing work! What is your trick with getting so close and not spooking the subject? This is the limitation that I find with animal and insect shots. Perhaps just a lot of patience is the key.

Thank you, JHut, Amit.

JHut - you might have noticed that these were all taken at night. It's so much easier to approach certain subjects at night. No way I was going to be able to get close enough to a Gonocephalus grandis lizard during the day.
