23rd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Wildlife
Red-eyed tree frog
I was always keen to find and photograph red-eyed tree frogs in Costa Rica as well as the many exotic birds present in that country. To find frogs I hunted, with a guide, in the lowland rainforest of Tortuguero National Park. We spotted one nice subject in the late afternoon in relatively poor light. I used some fill-flash with a diffuser to help illuminate the subject with a dark background.
