Hi Smitha,
This is sweet , lovely composition. Good colours.Love the way its kept its tail all spread out.The OOF flower at the top is a little disturbing & probably can be cloned out.

What a lovely little Squirrel, and a lovely POV. Great detail, light and colours. He is so cute as his tail trails beside him.

I love it

hi smitha,
nice capture, looks like you have invested well in lenses,
this shot has been well captured, i liked the pose here very much, the white flower at the left acts as a distraction & cropping it out my enhance the look of the shot,
the colours are natural, point of view is lovely witha good dof, nice blurred bg, I have posted a workshop as per my preferences & hope that you will like it too,
tfs & regards

Smitha,

Very nice picture. I love the way the tail lays to one side of the squirrel. You captured it from a correct hight to bring out the details of the tail.

Hi Smitha,

Ahhhhhh - how cute. Wonderful pose, nice and sharp and just adorable.

Very cute shot. Good you got the whole creature - that is one big tail !... It reminds me of a chipmunk.

Are there lots of these around where you live ?

Hi Smitha

Very nice work. Love the composition. Very cute subject.Well done.

Bravo, you got it sitting still for a moment, Smitha :-)! I know how frisky these creatures are.
Very good point of view, lovely pose and natural colours.
The foliage to the right of the subject is tentative and incidental here IMO. I guess you just could not get it out of the frame in a hurry to catch up with the restless squirrel. Cropping it at PP stage is just not possible; it is so close to the little thing.
Anyway, it does not distract much.
Well done.
