Shooting night time creators like frogs and insects can be challenging at best.  While in Costa Rica I had the opportunity to do a jungle night hike and came across many night time creators, but the problem was getting the right shot.  Either I couldn't get set up fast enough or the creators wouldn't stay still. So what I ended up doing was set up my tripod and camera to point at a specific leaf.  Then I set up a flashlight to point on the underside of that leaf.  I was then able to just sit there and wait.  Turns out that light attracted all kinds of insects and those insects then attracted a Tree Frog. Voila
