    Frog on Branch

    I found this little guy while out looking for birds and thought he looked pretty neat.

    Camera = Digital Rebel
    Lens = Sigma 50mm f/2.8 Macro EX
    A = f/4
    SS = 1/400Sec
    ISO = 200

    Comments/suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    Great catch

    Great catch. Nice colors and detail. My suggestion is crop this sucker down! Get rid of much of the left and top portion that add little to the compostion. But then as many know I am a fan of the tight crop, other will diagree I'm sure.

    very nice. I agree crop it down, but not too much. Just above that weird section of bark that is just above the 2 little limbs coming out. Maybe lighten the total picture a hair in photo shop too! The frog is very neat, you can tell he knows your there taking the picture, yet doesnt dare move. good eye, i wouldnt have even seen him

    Hmmm

    I like this one as is. Usually, I go for the tight crop, but not here. You have more than just a frog, you have a frog who's going places!

    I love this photo... close-ups are my favorite. I think this would look great as a square photo. I don't know if that's considered a "tight crop" or not, but I can really imagine that frog in the center of the photo with a black mat. Nice shot!
