Wow - great eyes. How did you get them both in focus, with your nose blurred? That's one intense expression!!!

I like frogs too Matt, but I gave this a 4. Three issues, were they fixed, would have easily bumped this into the 6-7 range.

1) Too centered. Perhaps this is a result of being so zoomed. I used to love to zoom into things. I'm learning that a bit more environment makes for a good picture.

2) Motion blur. I'm guessing the froggie didn't let you use a tripod. IS or not, 1/6 is pretty darn slow. I noticed the blur right away and personally I tend to vote blurred or OOF shots fairly low. Big sin on DPC.

3) The highlight is quite harsh. I'm not quite sure what to recommend. A polarizer would have helped, but requires time to adjust as well as making the shutter even slower. Was it your flash?

You seemed to have used a lot of USM, but unfortunately it doesn't really show. The crop is too tight on this image, and nothing is really in focus or sharp. I think this is why it only got a middle of the road score. Just my $2 worth, but thought I would respond to your plea for comments on the comment thread.
