    Hi folks a second marmot in row ....
    This time a youngster from early in the season of 2017 ....tried to make the rain fall visible , to create streaks . But i guess for the wished effect, i needed more rain or an even slower SS . Nevertheless i tried ...and i quite like the overall cool atmosphere compared to previous posting.
    And there are some short streaks visible ... and to be honest once it rained heavier at that location , all marmots disappeared so no chance for rain streaks in the burrow system ..LOL !!
    So i took the options i had to play with ...tell me me your thoughts .

    EF 500 IS L II

    F 4,5 ; Iso 800 ; 1/200 sec ; well should have stopped down for more DOF .... too late folks , so take it as is .

    Processed with C1 and PSCC 2018 ; cropped for comp from RHS and top/bottom for composition

    Thanks for watching and commenting to my previous posting

    Ah yes ..kept this way more punchy than Steve did with his swiss marmots .... ... matter of taste .

    Cheers Andreas

    Hi Andreas - Another good look at a marmot. I like that we can see the short tail on this one too. Cooler temp works for me. I also agree with your self-critique but also want the marmot a little more off-center with more room on the left.

    TFS,
    Rachel

    Hi Andreas, an animal I have never seen before. Looks very much like a Woodchuck here, I would guess about the same size. Sharp, nice color, perfect background. Thank you for sharing.
