Let's go back to some images from the French Estate and these are of Sabrina. I posted similar images but I don't believe these have been posted. If I did, I apologize.
Zeiss should be paying you a commission for selling so many of their Makro-Planar 100mm f/2 lenses. I know I've been tempted many times by you! Amazing...

I have been debating about posting this particular image from Costa Rica. The so-called glass frog, which is tiny and semi translucent frog, is quite common in CR. I posted several images of this frog here previously. While photographing the frog in its habitat, including light coming through while the frog was perching on the leave, I was thinking out loud of getting some images of the frog on a piece of glass pane. Our guide didn't say much and to my surprise he pulled out a piece of glass. Apparently, some folks tried that before and so, he was prepared .
Up to that point, I limited the extent of my photography to capture of what would be encountered under its natural living conditions and a piece of glass was definitely not in the repertoire. I figured, this is a rare opportunity and for the sake of photography, why not . So, I did take a few images of the frog lit from the top and bottom. Here is the first one from the top of the frog.
