:O I only just noticed this picture was a frog! Okay, now I feel really stupid. You should have really put some more contrast in to get the full effect of the Froggie. :)
Well done on an original picture. |

I really like the textures and the outlines, the lighting isnt great, needs more contrast and some colour. A reflection of the sun would have looked great in this photo. But good effort, and I'm sure you'll improve. (: |

This image needs some extra contrast somehow to make your subject stand out... - setzler |

HMM... there isn\'t a lot going on in this photo. The textures are interesting, but the colours are flat and dull. With a bit more contrast, and some experiments with different exposures, I think you could have achieved something interesting, but this doesn\'t really get there.
Updated - I didn't see the frog until I looked at the thumbnail after I finished voting, and it suddenly appeared! I don't think it'll change my vote though, because the flaws I saw initially still stand. |

Oooh! It's a frog! I think just a little side light to contrast the outline would help. |

It's a little too homogenous - there's no focal point. It seems more suited to a tiled background, though the patterns are interesting. |

poor froggy. Definately looks untouched by man. Not a overly exciting shot, but I think it has some photojournalistic, or documentary aspcets. the lighting on the subject appears good, I wonder if the lighting was a bit harsher if there would be some shadow to help bring out the shape? maybe like a side light or something. Something to try at least. Great find. Good luck in the challenge. |

I'm sorry, I look and look at this and can't really tell what I'm looking at. DPz |

Very interesting subject you've got here. The contrast could be boosted a bit to bring out the form and relief I think. I know this is a challenging image to capture and I like it...just wondering about that contrast. Nice job. |

Is that a frog? I didn't even notice that outline until I had viewed it several times! |

Dig him up and thaw him out - he might live. This is vry unique and comes through very clearly with the exception of all of his left legs. But I can definitely tell what it is, or isn't anymore. I like it but don't think it will do well here. To me it's an 8. PTL |

Surprising, but I can see the outline of the frog better in the smaller view. Interesting idea, but to me, it needed more light to show off the frog better.

There is really not enough here to engage the eye. The color is dull and I can't tell if it's in focus or not - because there's really nothing to focus on. |

Great eye to even notice the frog, nice shot, fits the challenge well. |

challenge -- met
composition -- i like how you closely cropped in on the subject
technical -- hard to see what i'm looking at because there's not much tonal/color range and no easily distinguishable borders
overall impression -- this one actually works better in the thumbnail. i'm intrigued by the photo a lot and hope you put some more descriptions with it that i can read on monday. however, as a photo, i wish it was a little more obvious what i'm looking at. i have no idea if that was possible or not. |

Just no point of interest in this shot. It's very grey as well... no great texture... Nothing in this shot seems to be clear... |
