Mr. Chips

EASTERN CHIPMUNK, GREEN, MICHIGAN, MAY 16, 2011

Pentax K-5
SMC Pentax-F* 300mm f4.5 ED (IF)
1/640 sec. f14
ISO 3200

I had set the ISO of the camera at an extremely high 3200 for dusk shots the previous night. The next evening my spouse, Deborah Abbott, always on alert for good photos, spotted this fellow just outside our front window, picked up the nearest camera and snapped off several portraits before he scampered away. I'm always amazed at the image quality the K-5 yields at high ISO.
