Thanks, Cindy! #8651258

Bunny Snow 6/2/2010 8:12:29 AM

Perfect focus, the lines of composition show action, which the frog experienced. Noticed you focused on the eye. I'm amazed that you zeroed in so quickly, got the eye wire sharp, the image well composed, the tonality so good and captured the action of the fall all at the same time.

Wonderful work, Mitch.

Where in Louisiana were you visiting at the time? Or, do you live in the state?
