Whilst checking some bits and bobs at work this morning I found this toad - trapped, having fallen into a small chamber. I mounted a rescue attempt after which he posed for me to show his gratitude.

Thanks Mr Toad.

Hi ARD,

I find the OOF foreground grasses to distracting on this one I'm afraid.

Regards

Rob

Good focus on the eye, though the OOF grass across the subject's throat I find distracting,
otherwise I like it. :toast: :toast:

Quite like the way he's peering between the blades of grass but on the other hand I think I'd possibly liked to have seen a clearer view of the toads head.
