Hi Bob, I have a shot (in my private collection) of 1 gopher. I'd be thrilled with 2, and you pull off 3. This is a great composition. Great use of your depth of field, to pull them all in and you've picked up great colour and detail. I like the catch light in those 3 eyes.

Thanks, John

What a great shot Bob! This is so cute and amusing. You had a great timing to catch them all with their little head out. They are beautiful creatures and I just don't understand some crazy people that can arm living creatures, this is way over my comprehension. I have seen a movie about Jeffrey Dalmer and the guy was sick. Those “normal” people who hit them with their cars just for fun are in my mind as sick as he is ;) OK, enough for the psychological concern here. Let's enjoy beauties of nature and this superb picture :) Thanks,

High cute factor and a great title Bob.
Very good DOF with all three in nicely. Excellent details and natural colors as well.
And the soap box..well every now & then even a rodent needs someone to speak up for it :)

It's a sad fact that humanity will always have those who have no respect for nature. They are actually at odds with it, missing the mark entirely. OK - I'm off the soapbox now ;}
