2013 & prior nature, wildlife, birds Home Sweet Home

Greatly appreciate any helpful comments! Thankyou, Gail

This is a great shot, but the copyright and the border kill it for me! I just want to see the chipmunk! I love the backlight though. Did you use a flash? Any post processing to brighten the chipmunk?

I love the chipmunk. The copyright is not so much a problem for me. But the pinecone on the left bottom almost looks like it shouldn't be their. Did you add it later or is it part of the frame. Over all nice DOF and lighting. LInda

For Tyler, No special lighting in background, shot in Program Mode with natural light....just the way it turned out. As for the chipmunk, I used my Bamboo Tablet Pen and outlined the chipmunk and brought out a few of the highlights in levels.

 

Linda, yea, the pinecone was added at the end. The photo was also being used for a Birthday card for one of my Grandson's. It coincided with a Scrapbook page on 'his day's trek in the woods', not to be complete until we added the little treasures that emptied out of his pockets (I hate that job---you never know what you'll find!!!). The cutest little pinecone was his favorite that day.....what can I say....little boys...love'um, especially 'before the End of the Innocence"! Shoud have ditched the Pinecone b4 saving.....G

lovely shot!

Great shot of this little guy. Wonderful BG to isolate your subject. Regards

Nice .... I want some chipmunks shots but didn't see any in my latest excursion to find them.
