I like. Not too centered for me. Froggers eyes are just about on the third so it works nice for me. I might crop a smidge more in from the top (not much) but looks good as is.

Works for me ... like a rock ...

Not too centered for me. As stated, eyes on the third line. I feel a slight crop from the top is in order. Maybe adjust to make a touch more negative space on camera right of image since the subject is looking in that general direction?

Thank you for the compliments. I had to lay down on the ground to get that picture and was afraid that he was going to hop away, and this is the picture I got of him.

I really like this shot and I don't think it is too centered. In fact, I think the subject may warrant centering as it can make things feel very solid like this stocky toad. I would try to get a little space underneath the toad (avoiding chopping off its toe). I do understand that it can be a very brief moment you have to get the shot - so nice work.

No, I don't think it is too centered. There is enough "off center" from top to bottom for my taste, and I think on this picture that centering it left/right works fine.

I might have stopped the lens down a stop (possibly 2?) to get the entire frog in focus and still leave the background indistinct. For me, the out of focus areas of the frog and the immediate vicinity is a bit distracting.

Actually the frog itself may be centered, but the center of focus (or center of attention) is not and it works well.
