He IS big..great details. I love the comp with his hands holding the toad and the colorful bracelets!
We have a small Koi pond, too, and it is the highlight of every kid's visit...LOL. The 1st thing they do is go to get the net :) #9914002

Love the interaction with the child. Cute capture. #9915352

Great detail on this less than handsome fellow, Heather. I thought toads were land creatures - guess not. #9915552

Mary Dimitriw level-deluxe January 12, 2012

Awesome detail Heather! You know my girls would love to do that! #9915984

Mary K. Robison January 12, 2012

Outstanding closeup of Mr. Toad, Heather. I think toads are ugly-cute ~this one certainly is, although he doesn't look particularly thrilled to be where he is. #9915988

Carolyn McIntosh January 12, 2012

I kinda feel like Mary does . . minus the cute part . . now that is something I wouldn't volunteer to do for you!!!! Little boys seem to gravitate towards toads . .. great detail you captured . . . #9916693

Tammy Espino January 12, 2012

Excellent comp and details, Heather! The toad doesn't look happy about it though. #9921022

Mitch Spence level-classic January 15, 2012

Your decisions on framing here are great, Heather. Love all those wrist bands, and the angle of the arm, and of course, Mr. toad. #9921799

Debbie Bray January 15, 2012

Ugh to the toad, but ahh to the capture!! (of both the image, AND the toad!!) #9921936
