Okay, unless by some miracle the toad lands on my doorstep again tomorrow, I won't have an opportunity to reshoot that one, but please let me know what my best shot is on these. Thanks a million! Emily :lust

    Each one has strong points and I am really drawn to #2, but my vote goes to #1. The light is lovely. The gentle way she is holding and looking at the frog is touching. It tells a story.

    I'm also leaning towards #1... I think #2 needs more pop.

    One note: make sure you size your picture so that you get 800px on the longest side! Even if you have to size it yourself and link to a "-O". Your current entry looks comparitively small at only 600px tall.

    I think #4 is great. But as you probably know by now, that’s just me.
    I can’t see #1, but I assume its ‘Froggy Friend’. And yes, it is ‘Froggy Friend’ for me as well over #2.

    I have a new laptop and I have trouble displaying 800pix high images. It just ain’t the same if you have to scroll a picture. So I am going to stick with posting 600 pix high images. After all, I want everybody to be able to see the picture, not to scroll it.
    Would be interesting to here the moderators’ comments on that one.

    I sometimes work on a laptop that has 1024x768 res, and I would still rather scroll that extra 32 pixels than see it smaller. The bigger size can definitely make a difference in impact.

    If you're in the competition, I think you handicap yourself if your longest edge is *not* 800 pixels. Just MHO.
