Hi folks, thanks for the comments on my last image, I tried again this morning, but all I got was freezing cold!

So here's one from warmer times, a tiny toad in my garden.

C and C most welcome

Thanks for looking

Nice Toad shot Dawn.
I would have gone just a bit farther back if possible. It would have made a great difference to the DOF which would have certainly helped with the rear legs But the heads in which is the main thing :biggrin:
Cheers

I agree with John, but I do like the very low angle here.

Great BG and a cracking eye. A tad more DOF for me but no biggie :wink:

Very nice Dawn, as been said already, a bit more DoF would be nice. But its still a great photo and I'd be more than happy with it! Not easy to get such a clear shot. :toast: :toast: :toast:
