I'm new to the forum so I apologize if this was already posted but it's not showing up for me. This was shot on an expedition in a remote part of Ecuador just before the sun started to set with a canon 5diii, 100 2.8, and two flashes with diffusers in 2015.

Welcome Jim, The very shallow DOF on the frog is attractive in some ways but I am afraid it leaves me wishing the nose was in focus. For me the frog would perhaps look a little better if accorded with the rule of thirds. I like the colours.
(It is practice to include camera SS aperture ISO and what means of support was used in order for people to give a more comprehensive reply to your image)
I look forward to seeing some more.
