Sunday must have been the day for frogs hope there are some activitys at the weekend again. Dont know if you have any more space at the bottom Greg but may have postioned the frog slightly more central. I to like the colouration on this one.
Nice one Greg, I am however distracted by the expanse of space above, had it been a smooth tone I think it would have been OK, I think its just the OOF blotches and what looks like it could be flare around and above the frogs left eye...
I do feel that the image is in the botom part of the frame, however all that is personal preferences really....

I like the angle, light and sharpness of the frog. The flare is quite bad as pointed out above, and for me, the composition would be improved with a square crop.
Thanks for the comments guys, useful to have some of the shortcomings I saw in this image confirmed (oof blotches, large flare spot), though I'm fairly happy with the comp (tried a number of different variations, I found this the most 'interesting'), but wanted to 'try it out' on an objective audience.
I actually really like this composition, it's a bit different but I think it works well. The lens flare is slightly unfortunate but it looks like the worst of it could be cloned out fairly easily.
