Description
While trying unsuccessfully to photograph a ruby crowned kinglet, our friend here asked for a portrait, so you could see how cute he is. He is rather engaging.Related content

Hi!
Really good photo! a.deviantart.net/avatars/m/o/m… " alt=" " title="monkeyloveplz" />
I think this cute squirrel is really cute.
I loved that the image is made in black and white, because it adds an extra touch of originality graphics. there is a clear emphasis on the first floor with the presentation of the subject and the second floor has been neglected. is a beautiful picture, and of course I hope you get better ... even if you're already good!The only thing you should improve a little 'is the background (rightly have neglected the second floor, but tries to make it slightly more visible). For the rest, the design is fantastic. I have no doubt you are a true artist! Keep it up,
Nokia-M97 @ 2012
^_^

Thank you so much for your thoughtful critique. You are quite right about my neglect of the "second floor", as you say, by my treatment of contrast, and light and dark, and the very shallow depth of field, which I reserved for his face. Lately, I have been trying to say more by leaving more out, but that trend may change. However, I did want the squirrel to have a chance to speak to you in a personal way, and you have heard him far far away in Italy, with wonderful enthusiasm that has cheered my heart. You radiate light. May God keep you well, and forever.

i rather like it in black and white, more interesting, I'll have to try this some time. Very nice contrast, on muted white backround.

A squirrel!! This has been one of my very favorite critters since a young age. They can fill your life with such hilarity, I could tell so many funny stories about what they would do to get your attention! (Like jump on your front screen door, making banging noises, to wake you to feed them each morning.)
They are sometimes pesty with chewing and the like, but a squirrel just does what God made it to do. I love them dearly!

They have that habit, don't they? I am reminded of "12 O'Clock Charlie," a squirrel who would, like clockwork, run along a small fence to get to the seed in a birdhouse right outside the window where my grandfather would be sitting down for his lunch.

Cute little marauders they are, and you certainly did catch him.
