Hey, I got some blogs bookmarked over at photoblogs.org today. That’s a good thing. I still have many, many more to do…but I’m working on it.
My husband, who hates crowds and going out into them, put on quite a display of fireworks in the back yard for us last night. Actually quite a few of our neighbors did. We could hear them all around our property, but couldn’t see any of them because the trees are so tall. Sounds like everyone was having a good time, though.
This is the last in the toad series for awhile. I hope to shoot some more soon. I’ve got a lot of ideas, just need to get to it.

Film - Kodak Max ISO 100

Cropped the shot a little tighter than it was

Things I’m Thankful to Cliff For…. Taking us to the races!
Fun shot that shows a lot of creativity even if it's a poor little cold frog. :-)
The little fellow is looking at that bottle like "If I take one more slurp of coke I'm going to barf." =)
Fun picture.
So that's why toads burb, see it's into bubble gum also, be hanging around on street corners next ;-)

I'd have an expression like that toad, too, if I couldn't get the cap off. Fun shot.
Don't touch that stuff Mr Toad...tastes nice but not really good for you.
Crazy toad, drinking all this coke! Should be too much sugar and coffein even for a toad :-)
A fun shot, made me laugh ;-)
Another star performance from Mr Toad. I’m laughing at the thought of you setting all this up, Micki!
That is so very cute! I love the toad series.
Real cute. :) Where did you find those mini cola bottles?
Micki, I love this guy! Everytime that I see him, he makes me laugh.
That's funny! Good one. It doesn't seem like Wed. Seems like Monday.
Creative, and the lighting's great.
These frog shots always make me laugh.
Micki. Where did you find your props for this series? That toad looks like he's had too much coke. Chris

The toad looks to be pondering the merits of continuing the sugar buzz by hopping up to get some gum balls :-)
