Hello Asbed,
Wow, what a well-timed shot catching this little one as it pops up out of the snow. It doesn't exactly look like spring but I suppose he can smell it! :-) Lovely capture of the profile sharply in focus. Fine details and colours too.
Many thanks, Ulla

That's pretty cute. Reminds me of the classic buried in the sand at the beach shot. It sure would have worked on groundhog day as well, but beyond the Bill Murray movie, I do not put much faith in that:-) I did love the movie though..Very nice!

Hello Asbed
Great timing here to catch such super sharp details as this little fella has a quick nose about in the world..The lighting is great as well as the low pov.
Top work

Hi Asbed,

What timing to get this one. I wonder how long you were waiting for him to appear. He looks surprised to see all that snow!

Very interesting subject. You don't see groundhog photos on this site. Thanks for taking the time to share this with us.
Nice shot - love the low point of view. Its just adorable - the little head peeking up. :)

Bonjour Asbed,

J'ai l'impression qu'elle a sorti la tête juste pour toi.
Bon timing pour capturer cette marmotte!
A quand la belle température maintenant??

Hi Asbed.
I like your true wild shot and cute pictured moment. It is wonderful. I also like superb exposure and details. Both the animal and surrounding not the cleanest snow are detailed perfectly. Excellent job. My compliments.
Alexei.
