Wonderful up close and personal photo and a great entry into the contest. Great photo and I wish I had an extra star right now so will give you a cyber 6. Great work and a marvelous presentation. Any closer and you could count his teeth. Thanks for sharing your squirrel and your talent.

Great looking shot. Fine example of nature photography. Your timing appears to be perfect and you have captured the startled look on squirrel;s face very well.I love his button eyes!
Well done!

This is a great close up. Love the shiny little eye with the reflections. Your image is pin sharp with very good details. The texture in the fur is perfect, and the colors are nice and natural. Very good use of light, and a nicely blurred background. This is a perfect composition with good balance and DOFF. Good luck with the contest.

The close-up and the detail is simply marvelous. One could almost feel the fur. The surrounding is reflected well within its eye. I can see the trees surrounding. That's all credit to you. An endearing expression too. I just wonder what he is eating. Whatever it is his focus is all on it while keeping an alert eye on your presence. An excellent shot! Great color definition, sharpness and control of light. Good job Willie!
