hi jacob,
i like the shallow DOF you used, it gives this composition a very special touch.greatPOV and good eyecontact.
warm colour tones and a very clear reflection on the water.

Hello Jacob!
Long time when I saw you on TN last time, so at first best withes because you are back :)
You wrote that there is no time for looking for frogs now in your country, and probably you are right. Anyway, today during practices with my students I found about 15 specimens of Rana temporaria just jumping among grass :) Probably the last frogs in these season... :)
According to your photo I would like to congratulate you the idea for this picture. The composition is perfect and the final effect - almost perfect. Why almost? Well, I believe that a little better DOF would be good to keep the second eye in the focus :)
Anyway, nice presentation!
Best greetings,
Radomir

Hello Jacob,
That's a good job you're doing and it must be very interesting too! Excellent close-up on this frog with great focus on the eye and nice reflection in the water.
TFS and best wishes, Ulla

Hi Jacob

Good to see you back. Great POV - great detail in the eyes - and good colour too.

Hallo Jacob,

Je hebt gelijk. Dit is de groene kikker (Rana lessonae)denk ik zelf. Als ik op de Vlietlanden werk (als vrijwillger bij Natuurmonumenten) kom ik ze nu nog redelijk veel tegen. Het aantal krimpt drastisch vanwege de a.s. winterslaap, maar afgelopen maandag heb ik er toch minimaal 4 kunnen ontdekken. Je hebt wel een schitterende closeup van de oogpartij kunnen maken. Jammer, dat het niet wat scherper is. Ik ben het volkomen eens met de laatste alinea van cincindela, dus waar die begint met according. Groeten, prettige dag en tot TFS BOB

Hi Jacob, an endearing and lovely shot of this pretty Pool Frog. I love the pov and the soft dof. Eyes colourful and sharp. Superb reflection in the water. Very creative and nice composition.
