Just trying out something different for a change.
For each image the frog was placed on perspex with coloured card behind, within a light tent and an off camera flash was fired upwards.

6 I did have a play around with this one in photoshop to smooth out the background as it was full of blemishes from frogs and crickets ;)

Beautiful set Angi, they look almost as if they could be ceramic posed like that. I think I prefer your natural shots best though.
Forgot to add the lighting is spot on (y)

Thanks Alby, me too, but I get bored and like to try something different every now and then, I'm trying to learn about strobist lighting at the moment ;), although mainly for portraits than the macro/close up stuff. Its strange how it seems easy for close up work, but I struggle with the lighting for the portraits.
 
I really like your natural shots but these are a triumph!

Purple BG and the red BG in your first post are my favourites. Can't really fault any of them technically but I think these are most complimentary pairings with the colour of the frogs. I also really like the pose / angle in the one with the red BG.
 
No3 really stands out for me..:clap:

Nice work.

Those are superb, really well thought out giving lovely results.
 
Any chance of showing some photos of the setup you used.:)(y)
 
These are indeed great!

Such fantastic colour! I'm guessing you didn't nip down to the local pond for this shoot?
 
no 3 looks great on the grey background might have been a side effect but its very effective, well done
