Charlie caught me off guard for this photo opportunity so it was rushed hence not being as sharp or as vibrant as I'd have liked but here it is anyway, criticism appreciated :)

Oh boy. That look... the scene is pretty much ugly with the frogs hands stretching out. The body of the frog looks like blown up? If you had the sharpness I'd usually would want to see on such a shot, I would find the scene even uglier! ;) I'd probably crop left and right of the dog's head, as the white body is looking rather weird to me.

cheers

Agreed :) DoF is too shallow to pick out detail on the body but cropping it out looked worse, camera was in Av mode set at F2.8 when I grabbed it.

Frog was fine BTW, released back in to the pond unharmed. Charlie is very gentle with the things she catches........... unless they taste good ;)

Found a better shot lurking in another folder and gave your suggestion a try, worked OK I think :)
