30 Adorable Frog Pictures By Ajar Setiadi That He Took Near His House
Indonesian wildlife photographer Ajar Setiadi takes photos of frogs that live near his home in Bogor, Indonesia. Images of him reveal the fascinating behavior of these colorful animals. Setiadi treats the animals like pets, letting them play in his garden while he turns on his camera to capture these special pictures. According to the photographer himself, capturing these little moments on camera feels like a tiny miracle.
In one image, a frog in the rain holds a leaf like an umbrella; in another one of his pictures, you can see two frogs appear to be dancing together. However, there is one image in particular that stands out as the most charming: Setiadi managed to capture two huddled frogs while they were hiding from the rain under an umbrella of flowers. Frogs are social creatures and this emotional image resembles a couple in love or two friends who care for each other during a storm.

The G/F: Awww....... it's like he's putting his arm round her and telling her everthing is going to be ok..... Me: No........ she's putting her round him and saying 'it's ok..... but don't try putting a flower up your ass again once we get this one out.
According to the wildlife photographer himself, Ajar said that he always had been interested in the secret lives of various animals. Most of Ajar's photos are taken in nature, near his house where he spends a lot of time trying to these capture rare shots we get to see now. Most of the frogs seen in these photos are local to Bogor, Indonesia, and Asia as a whole.

They just got married and now he can kiss the bride and eat the flowers.
We think it's safe to assume that after so much time the Indonesian photographer has developed quite a talent for taking such up-close and unique photos. On his Instagram Setiadi mentioned that he enjoys the rain because then he gets to watch white tree frogs (also known as Australian green tree frogs). According to the photographer, the frogs often seek shelter under flowers, vegetables, and other plants.

Ajar's most well-known photo depicts a couple of sweet frogs that were shielding one another from the rain under a flower, using it as an umbrella. The photographer only managed to get a few photos but admitted that the moment was really special and unlike anything else he had ever seen. It was something that was practically unrepeatable, a one-in-a-million chance.

Do you think my new hat brings out the color of my eyes - truth now?
The said picture won numerous photography contests in the world, and we can see why. Besides taking pictures of the frogs, Ajar also likes to photograph insects, other types of reptiles, rats, birds, fish, and occasionally even people. Setiadi also mentioned that for the sake of a good picture he doesn't mind getting a little bit wet.

So the question is this: Is the frog the flower’s accessory or is the flower the frog’s accessory—they’re very matchy-matchy.

Please stop encouraging photographers to harm animals for sake of photos. There are no white mice in the wild, so this was all staged, with a horrifying outcome.

They’re likely some type of dart-poison frogs, which tend to be very colorful to let you know not to touch them.

Sorry to burst the bubble, but most of these shots are probably staged, and caused harm to the frogs. In photos like these - where frogs seem to be behaving in a way not natural to them - they have probably been glued to objects/other animals, held up by wires/hooks, etc (look at number 25 again, you can can see they’re held up by hooks around their hands/wrists). In shots with their mouths wide open…usually this only seen when the frog is in much distress (like being eaten by a snake). At the very least, the frogs have often been roughly handled and traumatised to get them in the ‘right’ position. Some of these frogs may even be dead.

Yeah, I don't think these frogs are ok - they don't sit up on their pelvises to relax like humans do

The shots are all great, but some of them look like they might have been tweaked with Photoshop
