I take this image in past year,Very tiny frog.. about 1 or 2 cm. I think newly converted frog.. about couple of days..
I forget the ID of this little buddy, if anybody knows..? It will be thankful.
with canon A495. macro.
F/3.0
ISO:80
.. little sharpening, retouch. that it.
I don't know the ID, but that is a very cool little frog!
I like how the veins in the green leaf give you an idea of scale in this image. Wish he was turned a bit more towards the camera so we could see more of his face. The blurred green leafs make a great BG but dark perch is a bit distracting and you may want to crop some from bottom, and then lighten the rest of it.
Great subject and soft BG! Nice detail. Too bad the little frog seems a bit shy--would have been nice if it had its face looking straight to the right or turned towards us. Cropping some from the left (perhaps a little behind the point where the sharper leaf exits the top of the frame) in addition to Brendan's suggestion of from the bottom would put the subject closer to a RoT position. Good work!
Hey Joshi,
I agree that this would be stronger if the frog was turned a bit more towards us. I like the greenery as it gives a sense of scale but it may be a bit much for my tastes. I think the lighting is done pretty nicely.....so just make a move in the field to try and get the frog in a better position.
Hi Joshi. This is a very cool looking frog! You already have some good suggestions above to consider. I would just add that you might also clone the white specular highlights just to the right of the frog's rear leg.
Hi Joshi, the light, colors and DOF all look very good....it's too bad the frog isn't turned more towards us. I agree with Roman that there is a bit too much greenery in this shot so you might want to try a vertical crop, putting the eye of the frog in the UR ROT position.
