Red Squirrel.

Not posted for a while,mainly due to not being able to get out with the camera.So here's a springtime image.
Canon 11n,500+1.4 canon lens,1/30 sec f5.6 and iso 400.small crop from left hand side.
All C&C welcome.

bg is a bit disturbing but I do like the this red guy, very very cute

cheers, Dennis

A cute little pose indeed Phil, with good detail and rich colour. Agree, might just tone the BG a tad. BTW, that tree looks very familiar.

Lovely subject Phil a I like the foot grip technique it is using to balance. Was this really 1/30 second? as it is very sharp for 1/30 at 700mm.

I agree that the background would benefit from toning down.

Cheers

Austin

I agree the Squirrel is great. Background a little off putting.
Good stuff though.
JR

minor nits re. the background already mentioned, but the squirrel itself is great.

Matt

Thanks for the comments guys.
Steve; I'm not sure you do recognise the tree(mistaken 'identitree' ) as I've not used it in a previous post and it is at my own site.
Austin: Most 1/30 sec images are binned but got away with this one.
Interesting that no one likes the background because I really like it (with doubts now!)

Phil.

Would prefer a cleaner bg but thats just me, a lovely shot of the squirrel though very cute

I agree with all above Phil, but still a great shot.

Light on the Squirrel is fab, but the BG is not for me I'm afraid, it definately needs taming!

Paul.

Background stuff mentioned, but I couldn't not comment on a great shot of a fabulous subject!
