Reptiles and amphibians are some of my favorite subjects. The Green Tree Frogs were taken up in Austin at Hornsby Bend Biological Waste Facility. The majority of the rest of the images were taken around the LOMA (lake off my apartment) and Brazos Bend State Park - both places provide a neverending supply of subjects. The Eastern Collared Lizards were taken at Wichita Mountains National Wildlife Refuge near Lawton, Oklahoma. Tis a photographer's paradise with buffalo, elk, prairie dogs and much more!
