This image was taken nearly a year back. It was raining and I was near Kalhatgiri falls (South India) to photograph the waterfalls. I spotted this little frog sitting high on this rock. I thought it might be interesting to try the wide angle perspective on a 'macro subject' with the water falls in the BG.
This was the best I could manage in few minutes before it started to rain very heavily again.

Techs:
Nikon D300, Nikkor 12-24mm
f/16, 1s, ISO200

Views welcome.

This is really good.

Great placement of the subject, the combined with the slow shutter speed of the water fall & generally the overall colours. Would love to see this bigger!

I would echo Steve's comments. This is really very good, with an unusual angle bringing the view onto the frog, but giving lots of additional interest in the background which has been handled very sensitively. It looks and feels as if a lot of thought has gone into the photograph.

Kaushik,
This is a nice image. Good idea. The waterfall in the background helps. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
