Red Squirrels
Hi All
I never tire of taking photos of these squirrels, but I wish to improve my technique. I would welcome any comments .They are usually taken from within a hide the squirrels coming onto an outside ledge.This often gives me a problem with overexposed backgrounds .  .  |

Re: Red Squirrels
Well they're certainly close up! I can tell the second one is a crop, but the first one doesn't look so obvious! Good shots

Re: Red Squirrels
Wow! These are excellent
Such sharp detail + great colour. The BG looks just fine to me. Only thing that spoils the 2nd one for me is the catchlight, I find it distracting 'cos it has an odd purple tinge to it. Otherwise, they are super duper shots, very well done! |

Re: Red Squirrels
Top shots, really sharp and love the close cropped image. Can't see much room for improvement personally.

Re: Red Squirrels
Thank you sincerely for your encouraging remarks. The catchlight ( which I have looked at in full mag.) appears to be the sky... and the darker almost right angled edges are a relection of the ledge of the window in the hide.I have a couple of more shots which I am now confident enough to post on the site.
