Red Squirrel
I'm clearing the hard drives at the moment, and came across this one from Scotland in April. Too cute not to showcase.....

a very nice shot Graham that just needs a bit more room at the bottom. Excellent in all other regards.

What with Edwin staying at home, you clearing out the old hard drive what are the rest of us to do? :biggrin: LOL

I am really surprised you didn't find this sooner. Great detail, colour and post, but would agree that it needs a bit more at the foot of the image. Always helps to have a bit of catchlight too. :wavey: :wavey:

A delightful image, with lovely complimentary colours in the b/g and f/g, but as already mentioned a little more at the bottom would be the icing.

Cheers guys - re the 'bottom' that's all there was, unless I added some of course...... :wavey:

Hello Graham.

Excellent capture and a very nice pose you have captured. Would agree about a little more on the bottom if you have it.

An appealing pose, but I think I might have gone for portrait format. Easy to be wise after the event though.

I'm with the others - a lovely image, just a little tight in the frame

I think the red squirrel is my favorite mammal. I dont get much of a chance at photographing them these days.

This is a beauty sharp, crisp, and a low angle, good exposure I don't mind that you cant see its feet at all. I think this is brilliant shot

Really lovely image. I like the composition and the OOF foreground. :wavey:
