I bet this is the same frog that you got that memorable closeup of the eyes. Correct? :)
This one rocks also Herman, and has a wonderful flow about it with its comp.
Details, color, light, ............ all wonderful!

Hi, Michael,
yep, absolutely the same one! probably the most photographed specimen in my garden, this summer; I haven't seen him around for 2 months now; i did see a second frog , a browner one, about a month ago; in the mean time i had however a grey heron visiting my pond several times, mostly early in the morning ; hope he's hibernating now and has not ended on the heron's dinner! :(

Beautiful shot and I love the detail and semi-submerged pose. 8) 8) 8) 8) :D

Neat floating froggie! It almost looks like you may have used a polarizer to eliminate some water reflection. I really like the composition here.
