Nice image Dave,
Like the details and colors of both your subject and the soft green swampy background. The light from Mr. Sun is a bit harsh...:)

Nice sharpness and pose, Dave. All I ever seem to see is the top of their heads. I like how the duckweed is sticking all over its body. It's a little tight in the frame for my taste. If you wanted to spend the time, you could clone out some of the specular highlights.

Now that's a lot of Bull!!! - Sorry I couldn't resist!

I like the image a lot. The glare and shadow from Mr. Sun is a bit harsh. I like the way the duck weed sticks to the frog. Great eye sharpness.

I like the close up Dave but I may be biased as its been a long time since I've seen one of these. Nic eto see one not hanging from the beak of a GBH or Egret. Harsh light as noted but nice detail.
