Took this in my back yard playing around with the thought of entering this challenge. I havent entered anything in awhile so I think I will so I can get back into the fun as well as get some feedback...

I believe this photo meets the challenge, but the subject itself is rather weak overall. The lighting and composition don't offer much inspiration. There isn't any particular technique applied here that separate the subject from the environment, which is quite busy. I understand you were probably trying to create the natural environment of the frogs, but it just doesn't work out well in this photo. Your depth of field is also a bit shallow or your focus point is off a bit. The use of figurines in challenges has proven to be a huge undertaking when it comes to getting a good score on the photo. In general, they seem to be shunned.
I am SO not a fan of photos of what I think of as "knick knacks". This seems a tad out of focus all over - it doesn't look like a selective blur. All of the grasses in the foreground distract my eyes from the intended subject.
The composition needs a little work. The choice of subject matter is ok. The image quality is a little below average. Has potential of being really creative. - 4
