Welcome Guillaume.

Send some to Wigan! Not seen a toad in my garden for ages. The image can be posted larger, see Posting Guidelines but if this size is your preference, so be it.

Very nice focus on the eye, also some suggestion of the tiny toad's environment. Keep on posting and commenting.

Hi David, thanks for your comment, about the size I'm still new here and on the forum I was on before the size restrictions were a bit different so I just need to host my future pics at NPN standard size :)

I agree with David T., next time post at 720 pixels so we can see it better. A nice first posting, and welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forum Guillaume. A nice image but agree with the above regarding size. I think I might also lose the frame but thats just me.

People are generally very kind and helpful on this forum so keep posting.
