Description
We live in a small town in New Hampshire and the states motto is 'Live Free or Die'. We have no state tax or sales tax. Cigarettes, alcohol and gasoline are cheaper here. BUT when you live on a private lane with 49 other homes, the town does not provide water or trash pickup. Our water comes up from deep water wells and the local fire department does not have a city hydrant to access water. So in the middle of our area, there is a homemade pond for the firefighters to pump water in case of a fire.
Over the years, the pond has been taken over by pond weeds and cat-o-nine-tails. Equipment was brought in to remove all the vegetation and while they were here, the pond was dug deeper and a little bit bigger. The frogs were so confused that they all moved to the edges of the pond and did not move as I photographed the bigger ones. Now we need rain to fill it up again. Do zoom!
As you can see, I have my camera back but I am not happy with the focus. More testing to come!
Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments. They are very much appreciated.

Very interesting information & great photos! I hope the frogs will find a good home again!
superb collage!
I was thinking that you were living in Florida.I make mistakes when I start thinking!outstanding captures. I watched a tv show about some toads or frogs that crows attack and surgically remove their liver. then the hapless creature starts decaying inside and finally explodes
What they need, is Miss Piggy to the rescue! ;) Gotta love all those Kermit's ... I always thought of the New Hampshire's as very expensive Real Estate property, have probably watched too much of that TV show 'Revenge' LOL BB (have been very busy, as of late)
Looks pretty good to me mate. Lovely shots Dana!
Thank you so much, dear friend, for telling the story behind this fantastic shots. It's fabulous to see those clear captures with all the details ans colors on. And now waiting for some rain, I guess; but it sounds great to me, to live there where you live, Dana!
