I was out shooting ... for frogs... out of the corner of my eye I saw this amorous couple land on a dried plant. I swung to shoot... forgot I had it on manual focus... focused as quickly as I've ever focuese, and got two shots off before they left.

Dang! They're quick even... "in the moment". :D

Clever capture and I like the framing. I thought the focus was a little soft for my taste.

Very nice. That could be used for a text book.
