Okay, on the count of three ... 1 ... 2 ... 3 ...
Say "Cheese!"
To get the high key "negative space" I got down low in the soggy muck so that the glare from the water was maximized, then I overexposed slightly. In raw conversion I adjusted the white balance so that it was fairly cool, thus emphasizing the blue hues.

Must look pretty cool full size. You did more than I would have. At least when you were down there you didn't try to kiss it. I must say though, it is a good shot.
Sit, stay, ok, hold it! Awww, no drooling! :O

Great shot, I like how you can see his legs underwater without the reflection.

Neat shot. I love the way the water is burned to white.

I don't like frogs very much, but I like your pictures

Thanks very much. I'm not a big fan of frogs or any other slimy reptiles, but this guy was just sitting there posing so I grabbed a few shots. And he was LOUD! At first I thought the park had installed a speaker system and added wildlife sounds ... but then I found out who was making all the racket.
