How the Heck Did Marc Silber Get That Frog to Swim Into a Cloud?

Marc Silbers photographs (www.silberstudios.com) have been acclaimed as brilliant" inspiring" and "evocative" but all we want to know is how he got that shot of the frog swimming into a cloud?

(PRWEB) February 13, 2005 -- Silber studied photography at the celebrated San Francisco Art Institute; he went on to capture diverse images from portraits to landscapes in black & white and color. But perhaps his most shocking image is of a frog appearing to swim into a cloud (see the last image in places" http://www.silberstudios.com/portfolio.htm) When asked how he got the shot Marc replied:

A teacher loaned me his Nikonos (Nikon underwater camera), I had found a rather large grown up frog swimming in my pool, the very frog I had captured at a nearby lake when he was a tadpole and set loose in the yard. I dove into the chilly winter pool and with teeth chattering, swam under him and snapped this shot on a cloudy day. This is a totally real shot with the cloud appearing to hang in the water. All of my shots were taken on the basis of reality without posing or contrived images. This has made a sort of 'time track of my adventures that I have exhibited at my gallery."
