Common Frog (Rana temporaria) - 40d-11922

40d-11922 - Common Frog (Rana temporaria), one of only 6 native species of amphibian in Britain.

Disturbed this frog when shifting wood from a log pile. Fortunately, it stay around long enough for me to get camera out. First shot wide open with very limited depth of field, something I don't normally bother with, but this look pleasing through view finder.
