Squirrel No. 5


GRAY SQUIRREL, EVANSTON, ILLINOIS, APRIL 12, 2009

Pentax *ist DS
Sigma APO 135-400 at 250mm
1/90 sec. f9.5
ISO 400

My quest for the Perfect Squirrel Photo has not yet been fulfilled, but this one seems acceptable for a Cosmosquirrel cover shot -- provocative studio pose, bushy tail prominent. Can you just see the headline "Sex Secrets of Naughty Squirrels"?

I just LOVE their tails :)

I love taking images of these gorgeous creatures - yet I know most americans think they're just rats with tails - I don't care - they're gorgeous :)
