A very nice combination. We seldom get to see salamanders and this is a wonderful BG for one. Nice details on both the leaves and the salamamder.

A polarizer might have cut the glaze on the body a bit unless you were using flash.

Beautiful setting for this critter. Nice positioning of the body with the curve of the tail.

Great contrast between the salamander and the leaves. Maybe just a bit more room at the bottom.
