I knew this one would cause some debate ;}

The title adoration should have given people a clue, its supposed to show a young girl who adores her pet............
Thanks for all the votes

This doesn't fit into my definition of a missed focus. I see a great DOF shot with the frog in fairly good focus. And the color pops out so well too. 6

Definitely not missed focus, I love this little subject. I don't have the heart to vote low for the little fellow though!

Since I see the frog as the main subject, I don't see this as "missed focus." It is well done, though, and therefore getting a 6 from me.

I'm sure people are going to say "well the frog is the subject" but I have to disagree. People automatically assume that the focused "thing" is the subject and that isn't always the ase. This is kinda cool, actually.

Perfectly focused, which kinda defeats the point of the challenge. One could assume you missed the focus on the girl, but if one were focusing on the girl, why would she have a frog on her finger in front of her face, would be my question? Or should there have been a deeper depth of field to get both in focus? At any rate, I'll skip voting on this one - great shot, but not what the challenge probably intended.

The subject seems to be the frog, not the lady. I like this picture a lot, though!

I would have thought that the main subject would be the frog...but a pretty little fellow. Oh that's right....I hate frogs. Darn it! LOL!

Cool shot, more of a DOF type shot than missed focus but still a very nice image.

I love this shot, the colors, the face in the background, but this is certainly NOT a "missed" focus.
