Top marks for a beautiful capture of this chipmunk. An opportunity arose and you were quick to see such excellent potential. I like this angle. The clarity and balance are very good. Colours are natural and framing excellent.

    Hi Brenda, I was thrilled to see this chipmunk up in a tree directly in front of me. I just had to get a shot of him. This was one of my favorite poses. I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for the super sixer review! :o) Nancy

    Hi Ray, I'm trying to add some shots that aren't flower related. As much as I love the flower shots I don't want viewers to think that's all I do! This little guy was hard to resist. Glad you enjoyed my little chipmunk shot. Thanks for the great review! :o) Nancy
Comment from Glena Jessee-King


You did a super fine shot of the darling chipmunk. Your capture is so skilled it caught the bright eye, the strips, and the little feet on the clearly seen, nicely colored tree. You did fine with your blurring and as usual, artist friend Helvi, what a great shot! Thanks for sharing.

    Hi Glena, I was really nervous the little guy would run away and I wouldn't get the picture in focus! So glad he didn't mind having his picture taken. Thank you so much for the wonderful review! :o) Nancy

    You are most welcome and so deserving. Darling little fellow.
Comment from Shadow catcher


This is indeed beyond cute, reminds me of the little buggers i have around here that run amok-lol! He's definitely posing so nicely for you on that branch with the foliage behind him. A great capture nicely enhanced, hope the rest of your excursion went as well!

    Hi LeeAnne, I can't remember what else I took that day, but it certainly started off nicely! SO glad you enjoyed this! Thank you so much for the super sixer review! I am honored beyond words! :o) Nancy
Comment from Easton Bay


Looks like he was posing for you, Nancy. These little guys like to scamper quickly so he must have been admiring you.
The colors are lovely and the detail is sharp. Very nicely composed. Too cute!

    Hi Bay, Come to think of it I could have put a camera in his hands so it looked like he was taking a picture of me! LOL I'm happy to say this little guy didn't scamper off and I got quite a few pictures of him in different poses. I thought this one was super cute! Glad you did too! Thanks for the great review! :o) Nancy

What a great shot of this little guy! Perfect clarity and coloring which I know can be hard as they are fast. Backdrop is great with the texture of the tree branch and the lime green and yellow leaves softly blurred. Well done! So cute!!

An excellent looking nature image posted here! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of that beautiful animal. Colours, textures and tones are good. Exposure and sharpness are spot on! Great shot!!

    Hi Brian, It could be that this was taken thru the windshield. I took the shot about a year ago both in and out of the car. Good Catch! Glad you enjoyed the shot regardless of my approach! :o) Thanks for the great review! :o) Nancy

    your welcome
Comment from Charlotte Morse


Oh what a cutie! Did you take it through the windshield or were you able to get out without scaring him off?
Beautifully focused, showing lovely detail throughout and a perfect dof that's given a great background.
Excellent composition and nice natural looking colours.
Charlotte

    Hi Charlotte, Since I took this about a year ago I don't know if the shot was thru the windshield. I took some shots inside the car and some out. The little guy didn't seem to be scared of me so I got some great shots! I'm glad you enjoyed this one! Thanks for the great review! :o) Nancy

    Nancy, you?re always welcome! I suspect it?s not through the windshield as it?s so clear, though I suppose we?ll never really know Lol! Either way, it?s a great shot!
