So pretty this little squirrel, adorable...I absolutely love this image. Super cute pose, well framed and well exposed, nice BG, lovely colours. Subject well placed within the frame.
Perhaps a bit more DoF would not hurt...but overall I am happy with this as presented, well processed and some really nice detail too. Very nice work Jon, thank you for sharing

Warmest regards,

[Jonathan Ashton]

Glad you liked it Gabriela, it proved a little tricky despite their being to tame. They were in bight light/dark backgrounds, dull light/light backgrounds, the light always changing.

I really enjoyed this one. Stands out very nicely, feel like stretching my hand to touch it

Hi Jon ... a real peach in my book !!!
Very well done and really like the stretched out hand ....
Lovely work and I really like the processing

Check Jon .... and TFS Andreas

Nice head turn, and I like the raised paw. Not as keen on the head shadow, was there any option to have been closer to sun angle? Nice not to have the usual nut in the shot!
