About One of this years brood of Red Squirrels. They all have their own personalities and look slightly different from each other. This one is one of the better models.

Well captured, beautifully framed in the shot. Little nose, little fingers, little whiskers-so sweet. Love the eye. Cathy


Andre Denis   {K:56377} 6/27/2006
Thanks Cathy,
Thanks for visiting and commenting.
Too bad about the result of the game today... a real heartbreaker for Australia :(
Andre


Susie OConnor   {K:34798} 6/27/2006
Really nice Andre! The details and exposure are perfect and your focus dead on. He's in a cute pose that really attracts the eye. Good one!
Susie


Andre Denis   {K:56377} 6/27/2006
Thanks Susie,
I have plenty of opportunity to get those squirrel images perfected :) I keep feeding them and they keep coming back looking for more.
I like this kind of animal shot when the DOF comes out like this.
Andre


Dave Stacey   {K:117552} 6/27/2006
You're like me, Andre, I can never resist another squirrel shot! This is a very good one, too! Excellent clarity and detail.
Dave.


Andre Denis   {K:56377} 6/27/2006
Hi Dave, If there is nothing else around to shoot.... There is always a squirrel in my backyard :)
Who knows, maybe someone here hasn't seen one yet :)
Andre


Toshi    {K:12024} 6/27/2006
Great shot Andre, wonderful clarity on this one. The bokeh looks really nice and helps the squirrel pop out. Very nice work.


Rina     {K:26519} 6/27/2006
Nice one Andre. Love what the dof has done to the background here, and what an adorable little creature with his cute wittle paws and fluffy tail. What self-respecting photog would miss an op like this, eh? Yes, would also be high up on my "swerve to avoid" list too.


Fadel J   {K:13605} 6/27/2006
Sharp and beautiful details, where it is standing makes it look like a statue, very well seen and shot Andre.


Andre Denis   {K:56377} 6/27/2006
Thanks Toshi,
I'm very pleased with the look of the DOF on this one!
Andre


Andre Denis   {K:56377} 6/27/2006
Hi Rina,
It's a little like cheating with these guys...They are real easy targets and the images go straight to people's hearts.
Andre


Andre Denis   {K:56377} 6/27/2006
Hi Fadel,
I'm posting a few on the lighter side, for a change. These guys are a lot of fun to shoot!
Andre


Kathy Hillard   {K:25721} 6/28/2006
They are adorable little guys aren't they Andre?! Good job of capturing this little guy!
Kathy


Andre Denis   {K:56377} 6/28/2006
Thanks Kathy,
They are adorable. But, I'm going to have to try some different poses. Maybe I'll try to get some Squirrel Fishing. (tying a peanut on the end of a fishing line)
Andre


Rashed Abdulla   {K:154604} 6/28/2006

Thanks Rashed,
I like the DOF best in this one.

Andre Denis   {K:56377} 6/28/2006
Thanks Nilanjan,
We have those here in Canada too.
They are called Chipmonks here.

Thanks Kambiz,
I can't just post serious images all the time. I find I like to mix it up a bit. :)

stingRay part 2 .   {K:139399} 6/29/2006
An excellent capture my dear friend with wonderful clarity of the incredible details. The pose here is a perfect payment for the food you kindly leave out for them Andre. A perfect dof and lovely tones to the fur. Well done to you. I am on my usual weekly catch-up following work. My very best wishes to you as always.....Ray


Andre Denis   {K:56377} 6/29/2006
Thanks Ray,
The seeds are supposed to be for the birds. But, if they don't get to them first, these guys are always glad to clean up the fence. :)
Andre


Kes     {K:18398} 7/1/2006
Hi Andre, it looks like it is deep in thought...or getting ready to throw you a hard right! HA!

Your lighting is spot-on and the wide aperture left those wonderful little background bubbles. Well taken!

Kes


Marcus Armani   {K:35759} 7/2/2006
Really wonderful shot of the little fellow, Im always turning my camera toward them, but have never seen one with such nice colors, excellent capture..


Andre Denis   {K:56377} 7/3/2006
Thanks Kes,
My next frame was the Sam Peckinpaugh slow motion shotgun blast plastering him up against that spruce tree in the background ;)
Andre


Andre Denis   {K:56377} 7/3/2006
Thanks Marcus,
They have quite a range in colourfulness here. Some are pretty dull. I think the little males are about the most colourful. They come in a real nice Auburn colour a lot of the time.
Andre


Marcus Armani   {K:35759} 7/3/2006
Our little guys come in one color here brown or black LOL, no beautiful auburn, this is news to me and amazing, I have a whole new appeal for these little fellows! whats new andre, havent really had time for small talk as of recent, but do miss our humorous exhanges, hope all is great..


Andre Denis   {K:56377} 7/6/2006
Hi Marcus,
I'm just doing a bit of catch up after being away for a few days.
That little owl on the railway tracks is definitely getting some deserved attention!
We went to the cottage for a few days. Saw a lot of birds you would have enjoyed shooting. There are a lot of Ospreys around right now! They seem to be carrying fish all over the place. Maybe that is why we have been seeing Bald Eagles recently in the area. I hear that Eagles quite often steal fish from Ospreys. Unfortunately I haven't got any images of either the Eagle or the Ospreys. Maybe next week?

Larissa Nazarova   {K:12212} 7/11/2006
She is so cute and excellent shot!
Larissa


Andre Denis   {K:56377} 7/14/2006
Thanks Larissa,
I think it is impossible to get a bad shot of one of these guys :)
Andre


Virgis Dromantas   {K:4212} 8/25/2006
I was visiting your gallery, and this one lovely creature attracted my attention. You put very right title - trully an overdose of cute.

I assume they (squirrels) are living somewhere near your house. And I can imagine how much you enjoy by watching the behaving of these lovely creatures.

Have a good shooting, dear Andre.

Kind regards,
Virgis


Andre Denis   {K:56377} 8/26/2006
Thanks Virgis,
I feel it is almost like cheating when I post a shot of one of these guys. You just can't take a bad picture of one. There are always a couple of families of these guys living close by. Although they are small and cute to us humans. They are extremely aggressive when it comes to protecting their territory from the larger Grey Squirrels. It's a lot of fun watching these guys. Last year, I even got close enough to some baby Red Squirrels to use the Macro setting on the camera. They were not old enough to be afraid of me yet.
Andre


ppdix     {K:17057} 1/27/2007
Perfect title...




Andre Denis   {K:56377} 1/28/2007
Thanks PP,
Squirrels can be sickeningly sweet sometimes.
Andre


michael  sammut   {K:126} 2/16/2007
I have to agree on its title. This is an amazing shot and besides, we dont have squirrels here, so its either photos, movies or TV. I adore all animals and with this, you made me gaze at it for quite some minutes. well done


Andre Denis   {K:56377} 2/16/2007
Thanks again Michael.
These guys really love the camera!
Andre
