This is another view of the same individual as in my previous post.

These frogs appear to change the contrast of the markings on their body. If you compare this image with the previous one (http://www.indiawilds.com/forums/showthread.php?14748), you can easily notice that the markings behind the eye, around the mouth and on the legs are much darker in this image, which was clicked about 10 minutes later. Perhaps this is influenced by disturbance or by the presence/intensity of ambient light. (This is not a case of colour variation (morphs) between individuals, which is also seen in this species.)

This image is cropped from all sides. I also made a full-frame image with the same composition, but chose to post this one due to the better overall depth of field resulting from the greater subject distance.

Thanks, C&C welcome.
