Hi Scott... I like this image for the color combinations...and the way you have placed the frog in the frame. I feel that the frame overall requires some more brightness.

I like the composition Scott, although I might have zoomed in just a little more. The backlighting made it tough to get good color on the shaded side of the frog, a little bit of flash would have helped I think.

Very nice Scott, you handled the back lit situation very well, on my calibrated screen the shadow side of the frog shows plenty detail and good color. The slight diagonal stem helps make the comp more interesting and I like the natural color palette here. I can understand the desire to go in closer, by that would have created a different image and both a tighter and a wider view have their charms.

The angled reed helps make the shot. I think you could safely crop away some of this frame and keep the key elements for a stronger presentation. He is an interesting main subject!
