While thousands of people were seeking refuge from the sweltering heat, a tiny tree frog in Indonesia sheltered itself from a downpour with a leaf as its umbrella. This 5-centimeter-long frog clung tightly to a leaf for 30 minutes in the wind and rain.


The photographer of this series of photos is 27-year-old Palme. Palme only started working as a photographer six months ago. He said he discovered this stunning and rare scene by chance in his neighbor's yard.
