love the second pic, love how the frog seems like it is trying to hang on and not head down the throat. :)

Nice capture, reminds me of that "Never give up!" poster/cartoon of the frog and heron. This frog doesn't seem to be faring as well though. :-)

Wow, yes great shot. Any critter with "hands" is going to make this kind of image alarming to us!
Imagine how much harder life would be if we happened to be the size of that frog!

If they only had opposable thumbs and tiny pistols... heheh

That is a really good shot, and like some, that makes me also cringe at the sight, and I have to remind myself that I eat steak, so...
Nice job, the details are very good too!
