    kathy,

    I like the blue sky and the framing is done well. The bit of OOF part on the lower right could be cloned out. Overall, the little guy is a bit soft. I would suggest more sharpening. I download the image into PS and did USM on a BG copy at 175/.3/0 and the sharpened it up nicely.

    Notice the shooting up gave him a rather exaggerated appearance - kind of menacing looking. A method used in movies to make villains more villainous. Get more at his level, if that was possible would be preferable. Keep them coming.

    Great light and a beautiful blue sky help this image tremendously. The OOF rock LR is a bit distracting. Great that you got the pika calling. I miss photographing these guys I don't have the chance as often since I moved from Colorado. Well done..

    Hi Kathy,
    I do like the angle. Agree with the removal of the blur in the LR corner. Very nice action.

    Great angle! I know these guys are hard to capture. Great colors as well.
