Common Frog..
Taken at the same place as my last frog upload, this one was making it's way from the patch of Pampas grass towards the pond hence the terrestrial aspect of this one.

Enjoy a restful Sunday.. :wavey:

Lovely shot, Brett. I like the low point of view. :smile:

Nice image Brett, I too like the low POV, the BG is very nice and the comps works well, detail is also very good.

Yes an excellent POV. The catchlight in the eye is slightly problematic for me, but no big deal. A really good image indeed.

Guess what, great POV! A good bit of grovelling required for this one.

Absolute cracker Brett. I am so jealous. The only shots I have managed are frogs looking at me through tons of grass or reed :mad: :biggrin:

Now that's a high impact image alright! Very nice too. Not too sure about the dark bit at the top - I think it is even stronger with a uniformly green background.

Now that has some impact, agree with Ian about the dark patch, easy to sort that out...
