Shot in the lovely tranquil forests of the Cairngorms, these wee fellows were certainly not used to human presence, but were easily bribed to occasionally pose.
Keeping a good distance with the BKG & FG you can create a nice, soft OOF environment to isolate the subject which, in this instance I really like, as it eliminates any distracting bushes, shrubs etc.
Thanks to those who viewed or posted a comment on the previous thread.
