Red Squirrel close up

[Andreas Liedmann]

Hi folks ... a quick turn from exotic places like the previous postings , back to my hometown .
Image taken some weeks ago in local town park

This guy is sitting on a ugly feeding stump ... so I had to go in tight to avoid the ugly stump .

Thanx for watching and commenting to my previous postings

You must have been incredibly close, as at f/9 even the paws are only just in focus, but good PP at ISO25K.

If you managed to get him/her a little bit more at a more jusanty angle, leaning out I think would have elevated the capture. Not a lover of the big bit of debris in air.

Thank you Steve ... I agree about the DOF and the turn would have been better .
But F9 was the absolute limit , did not want to shoot at lower SS .
Yeah the debris ... ... part of the " story " for me . But could be easily evicted .....

Cheers Andreas

Super, super cute Squirrel Love the way it pops into the frame, and that 3D feel.

I do understand your thinking behind the techs - glad there's sharpness and detail where it needs to be so happy with this as presented

Kind regards,

[Andreas Liedmann]

Thank you Gabriela

Clean image and well detailed. DOF is OK for me.
