Hi From the Critique Club
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Very cute subject here. To get the negatives out of the way though - it relies heavily on the title to succeed in the challenge and outside of it I doubt anyone would guess the challenge without knowing. The pool of light is also very hot causing blown highlights. This is indeed a toad by the way and shouldn't one kiss a frog for a prince? Not me though - I'm heterosexual. ; )

Good composition but I bet you could have got closer which would have improved the shot greatly, getting the viewer more involved.

Interesting, if surreal photo of the frog. I think some of that dense black background could have been cropped.

The highlights seem to be a bit too blown out here. Also I think cropping in closer on the toad, maybe getting rig of half the dark area, would improve the shot and composition.
