Not posted in a very very long time however I got a unique opportunity to visit red's, reds that are wild yet roam freely across the estates driveway and dry stone walls!

Lovely shots- I would have preferred No1 in landscape format to take in his tail, If I'm being honest That said I actually prefer No2

No3 for me - that's amazing

 

[Mentalblock]

No 3 for me, it's not the normal picture of a squirrel that I like about it.
1 & 2 need the tail in, the tail is a key part of a red for me so it should be all in or all out with the POI elsewhere; other than the tail, they're both nice shots though.

A very fine set of images..

Thank you for the feedback all, no1's colour profile is wrong so on some devices it will display extremely dark. As for his tail, I'd been kindly borrowed a 300mm and had no movement behind me to try and frame it better.


No3 is also my personal favourite, I understand people won't like it due to it being on a feeder however these unique glimpses of rare squirrels have to be manipulated somehow ;-)
