I like the way you've captured the reflection. The frog could be a little sharper, though, and it might be better if the composition were a little more balanced by moving the frog up in the frame.

Too blurry and out of focus

He looks a little grumpy! Great colors and reflection.

Nice reflection of this green frog...

Theselittle guys are very cool and I hope to be able to photograph one someday. I'm not sure if this image is suffering from digital noise or a lack of focus, bu the image looks to me to be in need of more sharpness. and perhaps some better lighting. JMO.

Terrific image - if only the focus was a little sharper.

Ribbit. It's seems a little blurry. Ribbit.

great reflection, seems a little soft on the focus

Hehe, he looks pretty content chillin there :) I think the focus is a little soft though, perhaps USM would help, or just focus from slightly further away next time?

8 from me...good luck!

Gorgeous tree frog. He does appear to be chillin'. There are lots of possibilities with such a subject. A more dynamic composition and better focus would improve it.

I like this photo but the focus seems a little soft on the nose.

Hmm. Nice if it weren't frozen. The greyish colour is also distracting. 3/10
