Like the three thumbs say - artiscally and technically flawless. But beyond that, great capture of a crtter at the scene of the crime. Perhaps, maybe, possible, a litlle, bitty too much saturation (red), but then again, maybe not.

Thank, Brad! He does have that guilty look on his face, like he's a look out for some crime that's being committed. I did not increase the red saturation, many of the squirrels have reddish patches of fur this time of year. In winter they are much grayer.

Perfect title Michael and a great catch, that 5D really does have nice color, it's on my xmas list, we'll see if Santa thinks I've been good or bad. Oh and by the way, are you sure that's Rocky or Rockie.... Best regards, Randy

Thanks, Randy. Most of the females have babies and tits that are quite sore and visible, so my guess it that it's a male.

This is a great shot. Love the little fist that he is posing with. I would crop tighter as the subject is strong enough on his own. Color and contrast are very good.

Great shot Michael. You really got some good ones of this fellow. I like your depth of field and well as exposure and sharpness. Detail is excellent. You can almost see the wheels turning inside his head.

Thanks, Bill. There is an overpopulation of squirrels and they can get quite competitive when protecting a meal.

I like it. I think Rocky's eye is sharp enough you could crop out the distracting left 1/3 of the photo and still have a very strong portrait even though the subject is looking out of the frame. Jim

Thanks, Jim. I really thing the space on the right is necessary to create the effect of Rocky being challenged.

Ha ha what a pose from this guy. A fantastic shot. The blurred background takes out a lot of distracting elements. Great focus. Very nice job
