Impressive shot in that you have included both such a good view of the two mimics but also of the lichens being mimicked. Although the yellow lichen at top centre is attractive I'm not sure whether it may be a bit too strong and take ones eye away from the frogs and the blander lichens. In any case, good work!

Beautiful, interesting, and informative. The best kind of nature shot. I agree with Garry that the yellow lichen is a little distracting, but I'm just picky (no offense Garry.)
