    About

    Ajar Setiadi photographs the neighbors most people step past. The Indonesian wildlife photographer works his own garden in Bogor and Jakarta, where frogs, snakes, insects and birds become subjects of startling intimacy. His most famous frame shows two dumpy tree frogs sheltering under a flower in the rain, petals for an umbrella, an image that carried his name from photography blogs to the Daily Mail (Daily Mail). He treats the animals like pets, letting them play in the garden while he waits for the miracle frames (Bored Panda).

    Early Life & Background

    Setiadi was born November 25, 1967, in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. By his own account he picked up photography as a hobby in 2013, drawn to animals and nature. His day-job history and family detail are not on record. Claims linking him to a 2017 state-company restructuring could not be verified and are dropped.

    Career Growth

    The frog pictures did the work. In 2015 the umbrella-flower photographs went worldwide through the Daily Mail and the Irish Mirror, showing frogs climbing gerbera stalks to shelter under the blooms. Coverage followed across My Modern Met, Bored Panda, which later compiled dozens of his images, and The Dodo, which covered his 2022 photograph of two frogs embracing in the rain (My Modern Met, Bored Panda, The Dodo). His images sell through curated outlets including 1x.com and Pictufy. Competition results and hall-of-fame claims on fan pages could not be verified against citable sources and are dropped.
