Made me smile your capture,
I had no success with them.....too fast for me...
The blurred bg highlights the squirrel, but you have to add a bit more sharpness to "him"... | |

 | 7/28/2010 12:36:58 PM | Except for the left side, the capture is so very nice and so very nicely captured! Sel! Richie must have thought it was good to spend some extra energies...how was the soup, Richie?lol!:-) | |
| RPLY | Photographer | 7/28/2010 1:37:27 PM | Richie has gone home for a few days. He'll read you comments when he gets back. He couldn't decide what to do about that tree - the log had to rest against something - or so he felt. You know, there's not much meat on a squirrel | |

 | 7/28/2010 12:09:20 PM | Very well composed and captured image, an animal portrait really while it is busy getting something to eat. I hope that your grandmother cooked up something good for you for supper as a reward for all your work because this photo stuff makes a person very hungry. | |
| RPLY | Photographer | 7/28/2010 1:33:33 PM | Richie has gone back home for a few days but says to tell you the roast squirrel was delicious. | |

| CO | Patricio Ojeda, Chile
 | 7/27/2010 11:37:00 PM | I agree with the comments regarding the focus.
It's on the trunk instead of the squirrel.
But it's a difficult shot and I think you did it well.
Congrats. | |
| RPLY | Photographer | 7/28/2010 6:54:02 AM | I was aiming at the PEANUT!!!! lol | |

| CO | Alla Shamis, Australia
 | 7/27/2010 7:24:41 PM | Great shot, Richie!!!! I agree with Martas' comments so I will not repeat it. Only one small thing I would like to add.... your focus came to part of the tree, not to the squirrel (unless you did this on purpose) . I understand that you were in a rush....however this is the only one small thing which is not 100% in this beautiful image!!!!! You've done exceptionally great work!!!!!WELL DONE!!!!!!! sel | |
| RPLY | Photographer | 7/28/2010 6:51:29 AM | I was aiming at the peanut lol. | |
| CO | Tom Bell, USA
 | 7/27/2010 6:58:28 PM | I didn't feel there was anything unsteady about the "mohawk" image; look at the critter's face and front paws. I like this better, though, because everything important is close to the same plane, hence more uniformly clear, with the BG pleasingly blurred. Well done! Tom | |
| RPLY | Photographer | 7/28/2010 6:49:20 AM | thank you for looking at my new pic the blury bg has somthing to do with aperture thow I have no idea what it does. :) I'm still on basic shooting | |
| RPLY | Not Available | 7/28/2010 3:41:54 PM | The basics of this are relatively simple, Richie, and an important choice in many exposures. The wider the aperture (smaller f/ stop number), the shallower the area of the picture which will be in sharp focus in relation to the object you're focusing on. The narrower the aperture (larger f/ stop number), the deeper the area in focus. Hence the term, "Depth of Field," or DOF. Some photographers say that the neighborhood of f/7 to f/8 is a good compromise when you don't care much about the clarity of your background. Hope that's useful information. | |
