18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Handsome as a prince even without a kiss.

While mowing our lawn I have to pass by the pond in our side yard to get to the front and noted that a frog was sitting on a branch in the pond. I did not pay the frog much attention but after finishing the mowing, I passed by the frog and he was still there. I put the lawn mower away in the shed and on the way back to the house thought what the heck, I might as well go get my camera and try to catch the frog jumping back into the water.
