Just come back from a log cabin holiday in Sierra de Grazalema (Southern Spain). Here's the first shot I've processed.

More soon.

That's a great shot, it also says perspective to me, you could enter this one into the competition.

Wow! Very nice indeed!

I love tree frogs, they look like such cheeky chappies

Fantastic shot, most impressive

Have you got a high res version? Would love that for a bg

Fantastic shot. I love the texture of the leaf he's sitting on. Really makes the photos stand out. I have two of these babies in a tank downstairs, and they're fantastic.

Wow! Fantastic!

Glad you guys like it!

I dont quite see the perspective theme in this, but I'm sure one of the landscapes I did will be fitting. If not I think I might have a good idea to shoot before the deadline.

Lostkat: what species is this? I know bugger all about frogs. It looked like a toy to me when I spotted it and only the place it was in made me get closer and check whether it was real.

@ Alex53, It's a Whites Tree Frog IIRC. Stupid docile things that look as is they're made from rubber. Very good picture, I like it!

Hmmm after some more Googling I think it might be a Mediterranean Tree Frog a.k.a. Stripeless Tree Frog.
