| I liked this during the challenge. My biggest complaint is the size of the image. If you'd utilized the maximum 640 pixels, we could have seen all of the detail on the frog and the leaf. |

Composition
Excellent composition, placing of the frog is perfect. i really like the contrasting shadows and light, but the only thing is i'd have really liked to get rid of the shadow covering the backside of the frog. Also, i like the leading lines of the leaf. The texture of the frog shows up really nicely.
Technical
DOF is good, but the back of the leaf is a bit oof in a distracting way, not najorly, but just a little. Lighting is great, bringing out frog texture. Picture is overall technically quite nice.
Post processing
Firstly, i have to say... the DPC size limit is 640!!! please use all 640 pixels, as I think you would have lost a lot of votes because of this. Love the colours, you've got those down really nice. Personally i used to like borders, but i'm not sure if this would be better with or without. Personal taste i guess. In terms of sharpening, i'm not sure if you went a teensy bit overboard on the frog, as he's looking a little bit pixelated near his head, but thats just nit picking.
Hope this helped, and i think the biggest 2 things to improve shot would be, a) bigger photo, b) no shadow on frog's butt.
Enjoy, and feel free to pm me

| Nice textures!! I think I could do without the border, or don't extend it out as far into the image. All the textures are awesome though! 9 |

| The green in the background is so subtle that I hope your score doesn't suffer from those with uncalibrated screens. The lighting and texture of this image sets it apart from the other frog images in this challenge. |

Perfect focusing.
It'd be better if the frogs back wasn't in the shade, but I can understand that working with frogs isn't easy so I won't take anything off for it.
Besides that, I really like the border. |

| this is superb ... but why save it at such a small size when you have 640px at your disposal??? |
