A baby African Bull Frog who was trapped in my courtyard so I offered him his freedom in exchange for a quick studio shoot It’s weird but normal doesn’t get attention much anymore they say…

Thank you for visiting! Since the early '80's I've hand crafted every image with thought, perception and anticipation. Passion is a word freely bandied about by 'togs but passion alone doesn't translate into powerful, emotive, memorable imagery.
Let me show you why you should hire an experienced photographer and not Cousin Piet and his 'nice camera'...

Very original! How you spotted the little guy in the first place I don’t know. Love the humour in the title! Suddenly the pixels start to whisper a whole different story.
On a differnet note, I am sometimes shocked when I realise who used we got to spoon feeding. We talked about this previously on this blog.
I cannot say with certainty what I would have interpreted this picture as. Suddenly I read the title and a grin spreads across my face, hmm .. slim, dink ek by myself.
One thing is for sure, one’s patience hás to improve in this field!

Thanks. It was dark but the courtyard light gave just enough for me to see him hopping along…
Titles make all the difference in online photo competitions, rightly or wrongly.
