What a sweet image! I always love it when you see squirrels holding their paw up like this. I don't know why they do it but I love seeing them this way! This little guy is alert and very cute! The wonderful focus and lighting really allow us to enjoy this little character. A great entry for the Letter "S" contest! :o) Helvi

Thank you so much Nancy! Yes it was that little paw clutched to his heart that really appealed to me too - I should have called it Romeo Professing His Love! That?s what it reminds me of. Lol

Thank you so much for your lovely review.
Comment from Glena Jessee-King
This is excellent. The adorable squirrel with that beautiful face and alert expressions, sharp eye, and attentive ear are all relevant parts within themselves and to the whole composition. But your background with the blurring and greens, oranges, golds is just as good.

This is a wonderful shot of the cute little squirrel.. You have framed it well. Light and sharpness are very effective in in creating a lovely capture. Good luck!

I suppose it was obvious that a squirrel would come up in this contest,but that saying it is a nice close up of this one,usually its good if you can capture an image with a nut in its mouth but this will do instead...Brian

Thank you. I do have other photos where the squirrel has a nut, but I feel they?re a bit cliché, and I prefer not to do what everyone else does. :)

your welcome and yes can see that point of view

A very good looking, striking image posted here into the competition. Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of that beautiful squirrel. Like the eye gleam. Textures, colours and tones are very good. Exposure and sharpness are spot on! Great photo and good luck!

Comment from Susan F. M. T.
A very beautiful profile Portrait of this little American Grey Squirrel ~ Sciurus Carolinensis who were introduced to these Islands in the early 1900 to increase Biodiversity...But they have disseminated our Native Red Squirrel one reason is they carry the Squirrel Pox that they are immune to, but it kills the Red Squirrel. Never the less they are beautiful animals & your photo captures this beauty with the light sparkling in it's eye while highlighting it's beautiful coat. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Good luck in the Contest Susan

Cool capture. Very defined and well-focused. The blurred background helps the squirrel stand out more. It's a perfect shot. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Ray Gordon
Squirrels are fascinating creatures, they have beautiful lines and move effortless through the trees and along the fence tops. They hide their food in the ground and propagate many a species. You have a wonderful close up shot here with fine DOF. The best of luck in the contest. Ray
