I like the image. Bit colourful and busy but that is how it was. I love the bits of vegetation on the frog's back. He looks in good condition.

Quite different - although a little tight at the bottom. I like it!

Hi Dennis,

Lovely capture! A wee bit tight in the frame for me taste though!

Nice one Dennis - maybe tone the blue down for me as well.

Good suggestion Eric - I often consider "popping" the colours, although that was not necessary with this image, but i rarely think if toning them down, which is what this really needs i think on reflection.
