I totally love this. The background color match the squirrel so much. It must have been a difficult picture to take. I really envy you this one.

Regards,
Hanne

Andy, I really like the overall tone of the picture with the browns dominating as they do. The composition intrigues me and I'm not sure if I would prefer it with the tail out to the right of frame........but on reflection probably not, because it's the framing of the head by the tail that gives it a really distinctive quality.

Sweet shot Andy. Nice lighting on the edge of the tail, and the colours are nicely complimentary too
