It had climbed a few feet up the tree to just below my eye level and stopped. I wanted to go inside and grab a DSLR and closeup gear but the frog might not stay where it was, so I opted for my iPhone. I had time to grab about several photos from a couple of different angles before the frog made its way a little farther up the tree.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_16233\" style=\"width: 910px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/170618-bridge-tree-frog-002-w9.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16233\" class=\"size-full wp-image-16233\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/170618-bridge-tree-frog-002-w9.jpg\" alt=\"Tree frog photos in Adobe Bridge.\" width=\"900\" height=\"597\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/170618-bridge-tree-frog-002-w9.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/170618-bridge-tree-frog-002-w9-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/170618-bridge-tree-frog-002-w9-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/170618-bridge-tree-frog-002-w9-452x300.jpg 452w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-16233\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tree frog photos in Adobe Bridge.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>With a collection of images &#8220;in the can&#8221; I went inside and grabbed some serious closeup gear.

You can see a White Balance correction and Vibrance boost in two of the images in the top row of this screen capture. I processed the photo in my iPhone using the <em>PS Express<\/em> app (Photoshop Express) and added my name and copyright logo with the <em>Impression<\/em> app before posting the photo on Facebook.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Link<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/?p=16236\">Take the Picture Now!
