Poison Frog "Tinc"

I am amazed by the colors and patterns of poison frogs.  They are often referred to as the jewels of the rainforest.  I think that's right.  What amazing, amazing little jewels they are!  The paper sculpture shown here is of a poison frog called Dendrobates tinctorius.  People in the poison frog collecting hobby simply call them "tincs".
The first image is a photo of the paper sculpture.  The second is the same image digitally inserted into a foggy scene with a digital blue morpho butterfly added.
