    I appreciate this is not of great pictorial merit but it just amused me. The image was taken in my garden pond, the camera was approx. 2.5cm above the water, my elbows were wet so were my stomach and knees!

    A very good evening to you Jon,

    Aaaaargh, where is Andrew McLachlan, he would so enjoy this! Do you remember his frogscapes?

    This is a fun image indeed, and I particularly like the two chaps under the big leaf and the quizzical expressions on their faces As well as the main protagonist's reflection in the water (including eye)! And yes... I did notice the one fella on the LHS of the image too

    Thank you so much Jon, you put a big smile on my face tonight Busy moving house so things a bit stressful at the moment, hopefully soon things can get back to normal ( whatever 'normal' is, these days ) so I can start taking images and posting again!

    Hope you have a wonderful evening,

    Warmest regards,
    Gabriela Plesea

    I like this something different and spring is on the way at least here in the states. The two under the leaf makes this TFS.

    Hi Jon -- Definitely a good image and glad that you are keeping at it in your backyard, something I should be doing more often .

    I liked the scene and especially the two under the that plant.

    The eye has come out nicely.

    Settings are not ideal especially the Fg but you have managed quite well.

    Nice one, TFS !
