They say that a Green Frog’s call sounds like a plucked banjo string, and they’re right! Every Summer, the sound resonates from our pond along with the trilling of American Toads. We look forward to hearing these annual mating calls — sounds marking another year passed and all is still right with the world. I like decorating my home with meaningful things. To the unknowing, this may look like a tiny, sparkling trinket box shaped like a frog. To me, it’s every Summer night’s banjo music floating up from the pond below the bedroom window.
Wow! Love this! For a second I had to stare at it because it looked like real frog and I was trying to figure out what was all over its body. Beautiful shot, love the bokeh!
What a lovely story to go along with your cute trinket box. Isn't it funny how sounds a smells can instantly transport us to another place and time? Well done.
Nearly believed it was an amphibian peculiar to your part of the world, until I looked closer at the emerald glass encrusted body. You've managed a very life-like character.
A lovely piece; your pov, dof and bokeh are great. Fav for me. I like that sort of music too, though living high up in a big city, I don't get to hear it.
