Oh my WORD! How scary is this... entering a shot in with real Masters? *sigh* I hope I don't disgrace myself.
But, really... I'm just happy to be here! *grin*
Even a Brown Ribbon in a Masters Challenge will make my day.
Anyway, this is Thomas Toad and Tommy Toad. What are the odds that the only two toads I could find have such similar names, huh? But, sometimes that's the way Life deals it. *grin*
Tommy Toad (on the left) looks like he works for the Mafia, huh? Actually, he was much nicer than Thomas.
But, I think Thomas has self-esteem issues. That's a whole 'nuther story altogether.
Edit: Toads don't smile. Ever. Even when I ask them to and they're totally thrilled with life. This is their expression. *grin*

Lydia, you're incredible with the frogs. It is now reaching the point of actually introducing a new and idiosyncratic esthetic by whatever name you care to apply. The wonder of discovery from repetition is the something new that is found even if indefinable, and I would argue that the deliberate attention you show in each of the new frog images reflects something even deeper than perhaps you have intended. This is wonderful and among the best I've seen of the frogs.
I love this type of image and I am sure it will do very well
the base of the glass bowl seems a little off focus but the Frogs are lovely
Ummmmmmm Did I say lovely LOL! 9
The frogs alone make this photo an 8 in my book. They look great. I don't think the glass adds too much to the composition. I think you could use a better receptacle. Still great job.
