A Great Blue Heron from a frog's eye point of view. No I wasn't snorkeling, I merely photographed his reflection and flipped it over. Too bad the heron wasn't in a clearer spot. The out of focus foliage in the foreground detracts from the effect.

I don't think the frog cares one lick if the foliage was out of focus with that heron thinking "Lunch!"!!
