The first two photos were taken with a 7D+100-400 and the third was 5D3+24-105<br>

<strong>Dominie - RAF Cranwell gate guardian</strong><br />The Dominie was the RAF version of the DH125 that was built at the DeHaviland, later Hawker Siddely, later BAe factory at Chester. My father worked as chief flight inspector on these aircraft during the 1960s and 70s.<br />Dominies have recently been withdrawn from service.<br>

<p>Shot with an EOS-M and 22mm f2.0 lens. This guy waited patiently for me to snap a few closeups and let me get within a few inches. Taken at Pocahontas State Park near Richmond, Virginia, I have to do a little research to figure out just what sort of critter he is, though I think he is more toad than frog.<a title="MrFrog by chris thompson, on Flickr" href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/outwithmycamera13/17523457663"><img src="https://c4.staticflickr.com/8/7778/17523457663_f7bb05f340_z.jpg" alt="MrFrog" width="640" height="468" /></a></p>
