Silhouetted Goliath Frog on Wind-Scoured Ridge in on a wind-scoured ridge near La Paz

Silhouetted Goliath Frog on Wind-Scoured Ridge

by Leon Baldwin

Pale morning light strikes the horizon haze, casting a low sun that turns the goliath frog into a dark, textured silhouette against the bright sky. The massive amphibian rests on a jagged, wind-scoured ridge, its skin appearing rough and mottled despite the backlighting. Below, a distant waterfall cascades, its spray catching the first rays of the early winter sun. The sky above is a perfect, unbroken blue, showing the stillness of the moment. Thin clouds linger near the horizon, while the rugged stone beneath the frog holds the weight of the early morning. one drop of water rests on the edge of a wet rock in the immediate foreground, reflecting the pale light.
