Handshake with Nature

[Trez]

Few days ago I lifted a sand divot container in preparation of the turf to be mowed...
This toad sprung up but did not jump away, but rather just kinda of sat back...I took my cell and approached him for a photo or two...again he just eased back and let me snap a few.
I extended my finger and this is what happened next...thought it was pretty cool way to start the day.

That photo IS amazing!! But it also needs the story for greatest effect.

You should print the photo on glossy paper, put in a frame, and then add the story on the back side just as you wrote it above.

Again, WONDERFUL!!

If that is the case then he must be saying his last goodbyes.

That is one of the best pictures I have seen posted here. Would you mind if I posted it on another site I frequent?

Yes, me too. I sent a PM asking permission, but got no reply.

Kcm,
Hello,
I responded to the email you sent me the following day...not sure why you didn't get it.
I explained in mail how it happened, where and the type of phone used, I did send the photo to our local newspaper.
Feel free to post the picture...kcm and fyffytr1.
It is a pretty cool photo, again thanks for the comments...
If you win some money or a trip...we got to split it, lol.

Ah, that explains it. The email is simply a notification - not something that can be replied to. The only way to reply is from the TreasureNet website, Private Messages section.

Thank you Trez, for the permission. And again, that truly is an amazing photo!

Btw, do you know if your local paper will run the photo? ....Probably not - is probably not gruesome enough for them. If there were more stories like this on the news, I'd actually spend some time following the news!
