While walking in the gardens at our hotel I came across this little frog in the pond. I am not sure of the species but it was so beautiful to watch.

Hi, Judy. This is the yellow-sided leaf frog/blue-sided tree frog (Agalychnis annae), which is one of the most endangered frogs in the country and persists only in and around the area of the capital city. I like the composition and you got good sharpness for handholding.
Cheers,
Greg

Another beauty, Judy! Two things I'd suggest - possibly taking a bit off the bottom of the frame so the frog sits a bit lower (maybe right above your signature line?) Also, if there's any way to clone over the URC so it matches the rest of the leaf I feel that would really keep that corner from drawing my eye away.
You sure were in frog heaven, weren't you? ;)

What wonderful detail in this frog and stem! I really like the background, and agree with cropping a bit off the bottom, but I like the urc as to me it gives shape to the leaf.

Another beautiful frog image! I hope you don't mind but I wanted to see what it would look like with a tighter crop. I also smudged away the green area in the URC and got rid of some of the tiny white spots on the stem and did a few other minor tweaks.
