So cute. Absolutely amazing level of detail to the point where you can see reflections in the squirrel's eye. Excellent work, Dave.

Everyone may have a squirrel shot, but yours is sharp, well composed, and well lit. Good stuff!

Greeting Dave,
This is just a beautiful shot,
love the pose, the clearity, I must agree with all the comments, my only nit/suggestion is the bit of hotspotting down the critters left side which has caused a small loss of detail in the fur, but still a very super image,
best regards, sandra

What a funny little guy. Looks like he could be a spokesman for hair care products. We have squirrels that come into our bird feeders, but I've never been successful in capturing them. You've got great DoF, and I like the contrast of the soft fur with the rough tree bark. Very nice capture, Dave.

Thanks for your recent comment on my image, Dead Horse Sunset. -- Naomi

And a beautiful one it is too Dave!!! How did this little one know that it's cool to have a punk hairstyle - even if he has to use his tail to get one!!
Strange about the Geese....
Take care
Regards, Shirley

Well, though those sweet creatures tend to flood any photo album in summer (;-)), this image does not offer much possibility for critiques simply because it is excellently captured. Details, composition, selective focus, lighting... everything is great here.

Your nature photography is indeed much much more than the usual sweet-silly snapshot, Dave. You seem to know thebest moment for pressing the shutter button. Perhaps sending some of your work to appropriate magazines?? I think you could go for it.

Best wishes,

Nick

Hi Dave,
These guys can't take a bad picture can they?
I like the way you got his tail up over his head like that. It makes him look like he has a Mohawk hairdo :)

Hi Dave,

Yet another excellent image from the S5000 with you in control. That really does put to shame some of the dSLR images I've seen on other forums. The fact that the S5000 only has 3Mp probably counts in it's favour as it actually means more information can be stored on the sensor for each pixel. From what I've learnt recently with regard to the Pentax K100D I got recently, unless the sensor size changes cramming more pixels on, doesn't necessarily mean better Image Quality and I think the S5000 is a case in point. Some of the review for the successors have been a bit disappointing from what I have seen.

I think if you want to get equal quality images but be able to print them to a much larger size a 6mp-8mp dSLR would be the way to go.

I'm hanging on to my S5000 now to keep in the car for when the dSLR is a bit too bulky. :)

Neil

And a good one it is, you've captured its look of curiousity to a tee. Sharpness is so good too, I like the backlighting and the way its got the tail curled up at the back. Very good crop, well done.

Heya, I think I shot his brother a couple weeks ago. With a camera of course. They pose very well, when they are startled. Instead of "deer in the headlights", the saying should go "squirrel in the lens".

Best to you,
Dave

Breath taking. From the thumbnail I thought this guy had a mohawk hair style! But he's even more beautiful close up. The lighting is superb.
Not everyone gets to take photos of squirrels, I would have to take a boat a very long way to do that. What a shame they don't live on this island continent, these are such cute critters. I know we have 'cuddly' Koalas, but they are so grumpy and bombed out of their brains on eucalyptus oil. CC

Unfortunately NOT everyone, Dave;) But this one is very special. It looks like a punk, with it's tail over it's head. Great image!
Cheers, Markus
