Nicely taken! A nice pose and very good color. The blurred snow adds a unique aspect to the image. Maybe just a bit more detail in the snow on the ground. Thanks for sharing.

Hi John,

I agree with the "other" John about the snow adding to the shot. The reduction in the highlights in the foreground snow (and resulting increase in detail) is an improvement in the re-post. I never tire of squirrel shots...thanks for sharing this one.

Cheers...

Brad

John, I think the head looks fine, as does the rest of the squirrel.

Very cute and great snow effect. You may have recovered highlights too much in the repost because the snow looks grey on my screen.

Cheers,

Hisham.
