Yellow-banded Poison Dart, by Ann Arthur

Not really a big fan of Amphibians, but this one of deadliest frogs on earth caught my attention by its vibrant colour. However, don’t be deceive by its colours. These poisonous frogs has evolved Apesomatic or warning colouration as a warning to potential predators that they will make an unpalatable or toxic meal.

Photographer: Ann Arthur (Birmingham, Alabama, United States) Registered
Ann Arthur was born in Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia on September 24th, 1988. She grew up with 2 wonderful elder brothers. Ann graduated in Foundation in Law and then continued in B.Sc (Hons.) Hotel Management, both from University Technology MARA Shah Alam, Malaysia. She started working with JW Marriott KL in 2010 and now she is currently training at one of the Marriott properties in the United States of America, which is the Birmingham Renaissance Ross Bridge Golf Resort and Spa, Alabama. Ann discovered her passion for photography during her time in university when she had to be one of the photographers for an event for her University. Since then, she never got her hands off the camera. She started doing photoshoots for a friend’s modelling agency and also assignments. She never had any awards or any achievements in photography, because all she ever thought was pursuing it as a hobby, and never had any intention on publishing her artwork. She has never taken any professional photography classes which she would love to, and to learn more about it someday. Her favorite types of photography would be more into travels, landscape, artistic, and events. Last but not least, she has discovered not only it’s a hobby, but also, photography has opened her eyes to a whole new different world in a different perspective, through the eyes of the camera lens.
