Hello David.
Cool frog portrait. Awesome composition and pose with a 3D effect that makes the face seem to be protruding from my monitor. Good DOF and extremely sharp detail. Excellent exposure with beautiful color and wonderful wet texture. I can almost feel the slime.

Awesome! Colors and composition are terrific. Did you use a tripod for camera or flash or were both hand held?

David,
Nice job of getting in close. The flash really provided a good even illumination across the entire image. I have to ask, where is his mouth, sort of all blends together.

Hi David,
it couldn't be sharper, he almost jumps out of my monitor
I like the translucent look of the skin and the reflection in the eye too.

just amazing David. As already mentioned, REALLY sharp. This is an incredible shot M8t, just beautifully worked. These are the sort of shots that make me jealous mate. Exposure, phew, how did you do this David.
All the best David, SUPERB shot and work, perspective is top's
Danny.

David a wonderful shot here, this frog looks like it's made out of some speckled gelatin, and the mouth very much looks to be gone here as it blends in so nicely.
