Re: Red Squirrels at Formby
I like the top one, colours look a bit funny on my monitor but I think its due to the resizing. (or my monitor )

Re: Red Squirrels at Formby
Excellent captures rhodopsin, with the only niggle being the grey frame around half the shot that does nothing for me.

The lighting, colour and detail are all top notch though with the composition of the 1st shot stealing the show IMO... great work!

Re: Red Squirrels at Formby
Two good fun pics - and not a peanut (or shell!) in sight!

You're nowhere near your max of 200k so the pics are suffering a little - and I think I'd prefer the saturation tweaked down a touch!

Re: Red Squirrels at Formby
2 fantastic shots, great poses and exposure, but the border puts me off...and yes also you could go nearer the kb limit for better quality

Knowing how hard it is to get good shots of Reds, you've done a great job here, well done

Cheers,
Rob

Re: Red Squirrels at Formby
And no peanuts were harmed in anyway whilst taking the photos

I did notice other people were pelting the squirrels with peanuts

When my little lad gets bored of trying to get them to come and take nuts from his hand (which they do at Formby without too much effort). He does then appear to throw the rest of the nuts at the squirrels although he assures me that actually he's just throwing them to the squirrels.

cheers
