Myakka State Park. Manual everything, wireless remote to minimize blur, reduced flash to highlight the eyes but not overpower the ambient moonlight. Lots of bug bites and sitting still until they appear for pleasing compositions.

Incredible,,,,,,,,,, Superlatives don't go far enough!

I'd like to know what ISO you were shooting at. Were you on shore, and did you use something to lure it in?

I don't know much about marketing shots like these, but you might look for a Artist Rep that does installations in big commercial properties. This could be displayed in a dark hallway, with the right lighting, a frog chorus playing in the distance.

It would look great as a transparency, backlighted with the plastic film like in monitors behind. I forget what it is called.

I would be tempted to crop the first one off the left and bottom.
