This is a wonderful shot of nature. Excellent clarity! You have framed it well. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

A lovely shot of this gray squirrel who certainly looks like she has been ready for the winter months.
Great close up with wonderful color and clarity and beautiful detail.

A cute as a button & candid capture!!
Fluffy fur arching at his back makes him look like a cotton ball...
Nice eye clarity alive by light reflection.

Ideal framing.
Subdued lighting.
Sharp focusing.

Thanks for sharing...

Comment from Melyuki
what an adorable little critter this is.. We don't have squirrels in Australia so it is fascinating to view their beauty and cuteness. You have captured this little squirrel so well. He almost appears to be posing for your photo.. Great clarity and well balanced within the frame. He looks to be focusing intently on something.. Love how he holds his from legs.. cuteness plus.
thanks for sharing. cheers mel

Fantastic capture - super close up showing the textures of his fur in perfection - great framing - harmonious color range - genuine color saturation - your picture is clear and sharp in details - excellent in contrast and lighting - a beautiful nature shot - worth for an animal book

I think you are doing a marvelous job with the settings! Your white balance is very nice in this image and you got so much texture to show from his fur! The exposure is great!! I like his colors and the way you caught him all puffed out - too cute!

Eastern where in the world? Your squirrel looks as cold as I felt this afternoon in our part of the UK. Your fine, full and central composition grants us a wonderful look at your gorgeous squirrel. Love the detail in the fur and that gleam in its eye. Great shot!

Jo,
A beautiful picture of this Eastern Grey Squirrel puffed up against the cold watching you closely from it's perch, your reflection see in it's eye. It's brush curves over it's head to keep the rain off it. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Susan
