Now how cool is this. I can't believe you captured this. Albino animals no matter what it is is so hard to come across. I love it such good crisp colours and its so cute

    Thank you! This is actually one of my personal favorites. I think he is so cute and the snow was a bonus :)

Grace,
A beautiful & interesting picture of this Albino Squirrel with it's pink eye watching you closely as it creeps cautiously over the snow, it's brush arching up with the tip pointed down. It's white fur standing out in bright contrast with the dark background.. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Susan

This is a great picture. I have never seen one but I have seen a white skunk before. The picture is sharp and enough difference in the snow and the squirrel to make it interesting. Thank you for sharing it with us.

This one should be the winner of White on White photo contest! The object is Perfectly captured. Razor sharp focus with lots of detail. Informative notes probably from Wikipedia, but I don't see any of your personal opinion. That would be a nice touch, Grace. This shot is perfect!!! Don't have any 6s left....

    Thank you Lucas! I guess I don't always personalize my notes. I worry that people get tired of hearing how amusing I think animals are and how much I like them, lol!

Great capture, Grace, showing this pretty albino Squirrel and thank you for the informative notes accompanying this. Very interesting. I like the pose you caught here, with his tail looking like a beautiful feather. Very good lighting and focus. Excellent composition. Suzanne

Oh my goodness! This is the first albino squirrel I have seen and the first thing I notice are his red eyes, it's incredible to see what a huge difference the color of the eyes makes. This is well focused , the image is clear, exposure is perfect, you are able to show the creamy white color of the squirrel and the Snow White of the snow ..well composed with a good placement of this little guy in the frame, well presented!

The squirrel is positioned well within the frame. HIs white color is different from the white of the snow so he shows. The darker background also helps. Focus and lighting are good.

This is something different! I have seen this before but only once. When I was a young man I would hunt squirrels and at that time I saw one. I chose not to shoot him because I thought he was special.
I really do like this!

Hi Envision, I have never seen an white squirrel, albino or not! I have to say this fellow's fur is very lovely. The nice lighting shows off the squirrel and snow beautifully... along with the focus. A real joy to view!

Comment from Shadow catcher


'Cool'looking squirrel-lol-as it straddles the boundary between the white snow and the black background.I have seen black squirrels before,but have never had the pleasure of seeing a white one.Excellent focus,especially like that sharp pink eye and the textures in that white plume of a tail.The artists notes are an extra pleasure!
