Took this with the new Nikon D800 and a Nikon 300/f4 + 20mm extension tube. Used the backpack as a rest to steady it. Loving this camera!

Great capture of this cute guy, Walter. Excellent light and detail on the subject, and he's well positioned in the frame. Personally, I'd clone the reflected light spots in the URC, which I find distracting, but you may like them.

I find the frog the most interesting part of the image. I would consider a closer crop that it takes up more of the frame. No problem with that with 36mp!

Walter, great use of a 300 and a really nice shot of a Gray Treefrog. I really like the frog (of course) and the drops on the pad in front of it. If you live in the suburbs with any trees and water nearby you're hearing them trilling all night long. BTW, my film system included a 300 on a bellows for better standoff with butterflies, dragonflies, and shy frogs.

I want to take him home (and your D800!)! He is so sharp and the light is magnificent. Beautifully done. I may prefer a pano crop, but that might just be me!

Walter, after reading some of the other comments, you may want to play with some crops and repost this for further comment.
