Tree Frog On a Dew-covered Window

I found the lighting conditions and the dew surrounding this little frog on my window interesting. All C&C are welcome.

The frog is nicely captured. Given the intersection of a manmade environment and nature, I could see this working well in that context because both elements are visually prominent.

Unique! He looks like he's trying to be camouflaged except his color doesn't quite fit. (His texture sure does, though!)

Thanks Ron and Diane. I really appreciate your comments.

Hi Norm. Tree frogs are very cool and this setting is rather unique! I see them on windows at times - but not on windows this covered by dew! In addition to the setting, I like the splash of color on the legs and the slight diagonal of the comp. If I was to be picky, I'd wish for a little more DOF - the right side of the head and the feet on the lower side don't seem as sharp as the rest of the image. It would seem that at an ISO of 250, you had some room to increase it (without adding a lot of noise) which would have given you a higher f/stop. Still, this is a very interesting photo!:S3:

Thanks Steve; good suggestions.
