Thailand is a photogenic country for a lot of reasons: The people are beautiful, the culture is fascinating, the scenery is exotic, and the sunsets are spectacular. In addition, there’s some really cool plants and animals here that I’ve never seen before, or never been able to get so close to. The following is a collection of some of my favorite shots of the beauty and diversity of Thai flora and fauna, seen in habitats ranging from the deep jungle all the way to my front porch. Each photo is merely a thumbnail, so be sure to click on each one to see in detail the bullfrog’s dilated pupils and the spines on the mantis’ legs.
