Great looking little frog, Norm. How small is he? It must have been an amazing trip for you.
I think if this were mine, I might try to smooth out the background a little and selectively sharpen the frog a bit.

Hi Maureen.
The frog is pretty tiny, probably only 1-2 inches long.

interesting shot, I too would suggest a little more sharpening on the frog.

Norm.....flash exposure handled well! I agree that smoothing out the bg with a low opacity brush might work well here.

Hi Norm, interesting pose and nice use of the flash. Agree with the suggestions above on sharpening and BG blur.
