This prarie dog looks so adorable and he really does look like he's praying! The lovely light shows us the soft texture of his fur and renders a nice catch light in his eye. The lovely green out of focus grass is a great background.

Great looking shot!. Fine example of wild life photography. Your timing appears to be perfect and you have captured the humble look on Praire Dog's face very well.

Hey Envision! This is awesome! I also really like the way the prairie dog looks as though he (she?) is praying, it really is eye catching. Maybe he was offering up a prayer of thanks for you because you were about to make him go famous haha. This is really well captured and presented :)

What a sweet pose. Even the light in the "dog's" eye send a message of peaceful contemplation. The focus and the details are sharp. All camera techniques are excellent.

Comment from nikman


Yes, he certainly does seem to praying for something out there! Wonder what it was? Your fine and central image captures that unusual pose very well indeed. Sharpness and exposure are good. Well done!

Grace,
A beautiful picture of this ? pregnant Prairie Dog sitting upright her front paws held together in "Prayer" the blurred grass making the perfect contrasting background. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques& sharp focus.

    Thank you Susan, not sure if this one is pregnant or just on the plump side :)

A very fine shot although I might have cropped it to a vertical presentation. I like the disheveled look of his fur and the great pose. The colors are great clasped paws are fantastic.
