Hi Friends,
Squirrels are really cute and funny when you spend some time with them you will get some nice shots....

The squirrel is a small or medium-sized rodent of the family Sciuridae. In the English-speaking world, it commonly refers to members of this family's genera Sciurus and Tamiasciurus, which are tree squirrels that have large bushy tails, and are indigenous to Asia and the Americas, and Europe. Similar genera are found in Africa. The Sciuridae family also include flying squirrels, as well as ground squirrels such as the chipmunks, prairie dogs, and woodchucks. Members of the family Anomaluridae are sometimes misleadingly referred to as "scaly-tailed flying squirrels" although they are not closely related to the true squirrels.

Hi Vaibhav,

This squirrel runs very fast, and not easy to capture it . .
Great moment to get his expression . .
A bit soft but interesting pose of it . .

Hehe...very nice image Vaibhav,
good timing, nice details..well done!

Hi Viabhav,

He is making faces at you, well that is what you get trying to catch such a quick rodent.

Very cute - a bit OE on the head. You can clone that away by using 10 opacity and clone some fur on top of his head.
My workshops are gone for the day.

Hello Vaibhav,

Nice funny picture of this cute squirrel. You're right, squirrels are so funny, I love to take pictures of them too. Take a look:

Have a nice day, Michel

:))) Beautiful capture of the moment! I'm afraid I have to agree with John regarding the sharpness, but taking such a picture is hard as it is, capturing a moment of stillness of the squirrel. Well done!
TFS!

Hihi,
Nice shot.
Well done Vaibhav

Hi Vaibhav,
Your squirrel have a funny look and the dof is very good creating a background free of distrations. But personaly I don't like the way you've cut the squirel, in my opinion you should presented his entire body or focus more on the head.
TFS,
Aida

Merhaba myfriend vaibhav......

Good sharpness and details .
It's beautiful.

Hi Vaibhav,
Nice shot, good DOF and POV, I agree the shot could be a little sharper and it would have been better to have had the whole squirrel in shot, still a good capture as these little guys don't hang around for long.

Hi Vaibhav, This type of squirrel I have seen in Australia but only in a zoo in Western Australia. They dart around a bit so you did well in capturing it. Some OE but I think the sharpness is suitable. TFS,
David

Many thanks for your comment on ‘Fire – Swirling Clouds’

hello Vaibhav :)

funny looking squirrel you got here.. looks like he is in shock when you took his shot.. i never seen one with stripes before.. he must moving very fast when you take a shot at him.. that's why it's not clear in some part..

still i like it.. nice catch. lovely seen and taken.

regards, terry

lol... funny all right, maybe it just want to get away from you? After all a teenage with a camera does look a bit scary, :D

Excellent action captured, top top of the squirrel is a bit oe, but the expression is priceless... well done,


Have a wonderful day,

Cheers,
Sweety

Hello Vaibhav. the funny squirrel looks good in sharpness in the eye. I like the way its mouth open and well muted background in the capture. Well done and best regards. Jusni

Hi Vaibhav:
You have done fairly well on this action shot which are hard to shoot.
You are very talented:)
Now just as a side note, I also have Tamron 18-200, and it is not a fast lens. If you have a Nikkor, compare its result with the same shutter speed, it might be faster. I am not sure of your ISO but I normally go with ISO400 to be able to increase both F Stop & Shutter speed to get a bit of more sharpness.
I like how you have caught with with wonderful expressions:)
Great work!
David Amarjeet

Hello Vaibhav,
I like the action, and that expression is priceless!
This time sharpness could be better, but i suppose this is a quick shot and not that easy to manage...
A fine composition with good dynamic lines!
Greetings,
Pablo -
