    these are cute little guys - nice capture, although I wish there were a tad more tree at the top. But I', sure you had your reasons... :-)

    Cheers, Sara

    Very nice. I agree about the framing, but you take one like this when you can get it.

    In a perfect world, there would be nothing distracting at the top of the frame:D

    This is not a perfect world.

    Great image....the top 3/4!!:D
    Well, because there is too much bottom.....I would simply crop is right below squirrels for landscape shot....
    I understand something unpleasant was at the top.....but excessive bottom does not work.

    Nice one, Willard. I agree with Taz about chopping off some of the bottom of the image. I know that doing so tends to center the main subject but I feel that works best in this case.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    This is as centered as I want to go. I think centered fotos are, in general, static and dull and I try to avoid them if I can.

    Geometric figures (circles/squares) and etc can be centered successfully, but squirrels and trees are not that geometric.

    Very nice capture Willard!
    I like the re-crop much better.. it seems to feature the rodents more.

    Harry might even like this one... :D

    15524779-Ti.gif Love the second shot crop and I'm thinking about the subject...not the crop. Nice capture, Willard.
