    I heard that it was between my frog and another shot for Best of Show and the other shot won. The funny thing is that the same two pics were the final two at the National Center for Nature Photography last year and he beet me then too.

    Damn Jerry and that water lily picture :)

    He is a friend of mine, I must give him a hard time.

    I remember that green frog, it was a great shot when your first posted it and still is.
