Frog unfortunate enough to wind up in the pool skimmer basket...alive, but tired. Macro using Canon 250 plus 3 diopters and a little zoom. He was fine and I found him a small pond so he should avoid being a future subject!

Congratulations! A beautiful macro and my favorite shot of this challenge. I love the gorgeous colors and the fact that a bit of serendipity brought the photographer and subject together!
Thanks for your nice comments..I was surprised and excited to win this first ribbon! And humbled to be in the company of so many great photos in this competition...thanks again.
Oooh, I really like this one. This is a good, creative take on the eye theme that has been going on in this challenge. Plus the picture is so detailed and sharp in all the right places. GREAT JOB!
Wow what a cool shot, this is sure one of my tops for this week. I just love the detail you were able to get on the frogs skin, it even looks all slimy eww. There are some weird light reflection on the eyes and skin, but I am sure they could not be avoided with the shiny/reflectiveness of your subjuct.10
Eye see you!
