Little plastic toad with real leaves. Looked too plastic, so gave him/her some soapsuds to play with. Some toads & frogs lay eggs in foam, so it's more or less realistic.

I totally mis-understood "Neon" and here you got it right and got beat up! (I gave up on voting during that challenge, bitter me.)

There's little to pick apart here...maybe the bubbles could have been fresher? Maybe the voters would have been better fooled without them? Who knows?

You have a talent for composition. And a sense of humor wonderfully displayed!

Thanks for playing "closest to 5" today!

The lighting seems a bit boring and the shot is too much centered for my taste.

Nice frog! You had me going for a moment there. Good exposure and DOF.

That toad's practically psychadelic, by colors alone. Can I lick it?

The bubbles are a little disgusting. That's a good thing.
