I have been using the K70 and 40mm Ltd combo to make silly animated .gifs about my beloved Horned Frogs this season for thefroghorn.com. Possibly the most wasteful use of capabilities imaginable! This week's game is against the Iowa State Cyclones...

I've heard Phrynosoma called horned toads, horny toads (by Yosemite Sam), and horned lizards (by naturalists and scientists), but never horned frogs.

LOVE it! You did a great job. Cyclones stink big-time this year, so you won't have much trouble. They're more of a "waterspout" this year... or maybe even just a strong updraft.

Nice!

Too bad I'm a Cyclones fan... (but I still don't know why the mascot is a bird!)

I hope no horn frog (what we call horny toad in Texas) was hurt during the making of this .gif

An incredibly productive use of your time - it is making us all smile

TCU has been called the Horned Frogs since 1897. That's what the local rural kids called them in Ft. Worth then.
