Welcome to NPN, Kyle.
Very nice looking tree-frog. Excellent work at 1/80 HH. :toast:
Thanks a lot for the Anole ID on my post. :smile:

A really cute subject you have here... I'm surprised that more isn't in focus with the DOF being at f/18 but perhaps the point of focus was a little too far forward. Either way it doesn't hurt the image too much. Nice frog!

Kyle:
Welcome to NPN.
Nice capture of the frog and sharply focused on the eyes. The DOF looks rather shallow for F18. Wish for a bit more separation from the background - you could perhaps try darkening bg in PS and see if that works.
