[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
First, I don't recognised him sitting in this pool with plants and water-lilies. He was sitting there so quiet and was looking for some flies.

There were a lot of damselflies and also red dragonflies all around and I wanted to "hunt" them with my camera. A couple was sitting not far away from the frog, what a pity if they were been eaten by him.
So it took a time until I saw him sitting in the water. I like him, he's a nice guy.

Hi Wishnu,

Good shot. Very sharp details and well composed. Colors look natural, but a bit hazy. Unfortunately you've got a burnt spot on his nose. Other than that; good shot! Well done & TFS!

Regards,
Pieter

Good shot Wishnu, intresting creature.
Very nice pose, excellent composition and PoV.
Sharpness is fine, but the white balance seems to be wrong (Maybe because the flash).

I tried to fix it - please, watch my workshop. I hope you like it.

Hallo Sabine, das ist aber wirklich ein schmucker Prinz. Klasse - Prinz mit Wasserpest. An diesem Foto gibt es nichts zu mäkeln. Ich war heute schon beim Doc mich gegen Borreliose (Zeckenbiß) behandeln zu lassen. Ich war gestern auf Fotopirsch nach Waldmistkäfern. Da hat sich doch so eine Zecke bei mir gütlich getan. ;-) Danke für das schöne Prinzenfoto und ein lieben Gruß in den Allgäu.

I like your green friend and his green background. I think you had used some flash since is a little bit glowing. Right? Anyway, a great shot, nice and friendly subject. I am starting to like treknature, so good pictures and so nice animals.. hehe

Sabine, this is a very nice photo. Excellent composition, pov and sharpness. It's a very beautiful frog; I guess we don't have them here in Brazil (lol).

Great pose and catchlight in the eye.

Hi Wishnu. You have done a great job capturing this frog! The composition, colour and clarity are all excellent! Having him resting on the weeds adds a nice dimension to the picture. Well taken!
