Description Little green froggie clinging to the stalk of this huge freaking prehistoric plant lurking in a nature preserve near here. He let me get about an inch away from him with my camera.

Lovely. A completely green background would have suited him / her better, but no photographer can change that in such a situation.

Well done!

Awesome. Love how you captured the fella sitting on that plant...

I so much hope for a frog to cross my way soon...can't you send that one over?

I can try and get him into an envelope, but I fear he'll get rather squishy before he arrives

Better not, with the unreliable Austrian postal service.

Cool picture. Frogs are very interesting. I love the detailed texture on the frog. Makes me want to reach out and touch him.

Great job!

Great shot. The texture of the frog's skin looks awesome.

The belly's a little underexposed, but maybe that can be solved by adjusting curves in PS a little.

Did you get a pic of the prehistoric plant too? Was it a carnivorous plant? That would be cool.
It was awfully nice of Mister Frogstein to pose for you. I think you might have freaked him out though, he has goosebumps.

Yep, got photos of the Trifid as well. Started sorting all the photos from yesterday and somehow got sidetracked into completely changing my website again. In the throes of that this afternoon. Blah.

It would be so much easier if I weren't so stubbon ... if I would just relent and use some extruded ready-made template instead of creating every stinking tiny image and hand-writing the code myself.

*rubs eyes*

Your stubborn desire to hand write every bit of script and hand crafting every image is what makes your product something you want to make in the first place. Plug on girl!

It's done! It's done! ... well, except for that nagging cellpadding glitch. But I can't look at it any more today. *claws eyes out*
