I just love the colors in this old frog planter. i think it's very old - maybe 1920s? i have no idea how i accumulate soooo many frogs, but i get at least 2-3 new ones per day.

Caution: You are soon going to end up on the cover of a magazine, what with this battalian of frogs! : )
The colours are great on this one.
thanks mikkochristmas11 and walksoftly!
thanks jayhow. it's old paint, from what i can see.
i know what you mean jayhow. years ago, i did a whole series of photos of the painted rocks in the livermore hills - brilliant colors and absolutely beautiful lichens up in there - but only if you get far enough from all the highways and towns. pollution is fatal to those brightly colored lichens.
Photographing lichens on rocks is something I like to do as well. The colours & patterns on the rocks is always unique.
hi jayhow. i encourage you to take a course. i took one many years ago, but digital photography is a relatively recent hobby and although i never advertise my photos for sale, they are posted on flickr and get a lot of traffic. i usually sell one to three photos per month. they've been used on book covers, playing cards, painted as murals in a casino, and on plant lables and floras. i even got a very interesting job as a location scout for the movie 'Snow White and the Huntsman' because the director saw my photos online. this has all been a huge surprise to me [a recovering cameraphobe!]. i'll look for my lichen photos later, but you can see some of my better photos here:
