Is that one of those slow,deep bass monotone type "You'll drown,you'll drown"
or quick, high pitched "knee deep,knee deep"
nice pic BTW

Thanks, Bill! It's neither but one of a long line of toads which have inhabited the front yard since time immemorial: as far as I know they don't vocalize at all.

Be an interesting shot,toads around here make little noise,something like a "peep"
not for females but to ward off a rival.Normally have to see 2 males in competition to hear.

Thanks Dadipentak, A28mmf2.8 is a very good lens.

Very serene looking shot up there UV.

One of our toads here. Will be "digging" in shortly for winter.Vocalization is a faint "peep" with 2 or more males in congregation.

Mistakenly posted in 15mm club, but no one noticed (28mm is that good)

A couple of new shots from the A50/1.7

Kaohsiung, Taiwan

Kaohsiung, Taiwan

It's strange but I think I can count on one hand how many pedestrian accessible bridges there are over roads in Kaohsiung (pop 1+M).

It's been called a stack of prime, or the poor man's DA*50-135.... I can see why:

StevenVH · 10-02-2011, 09:45 AM

Putting it to good use already, I see. That's a great copy of a great lens, glad it found a good home.

cheers

All 3 are super but the 1st one really grabs my eye, great images nicely done!

I bought this a couple of months ago but got distracted by some more glamorous additions to my collection. I gave it a try on the cats today and I'm really impressed.
