I shot this green tree frog last night when I was walking in the door with a D70 and 85mm 1.8 set @ 1/60 and f/13 using on-camera flash. When I cropped it, I noticed the fly.

Tell me what you think and how you would improve it.

cool picture, the flash makes it look kinda wierd, like the coloring is wierd mabey b/c of the digital camera / flash

LL,

The composition and angle are nice. However the lighting is flat, due to the nature of the flash. The best way to improve on this would have been to use an off-camera strobe and bounce it into the ceiling above the door, if there was one. Bounced light would have done a much nicer job at modelling the frog's shape and would have aliminated those weird shadows from the paint.

I agree with others comments here. All is good except the lighting
