Taking a Break

Yesterday afternoon was a scorcher here and this neighborhood gray squirrel was taking five in our backyard. Smart.

Specific Feedback Requested

Exposure? I wanted to convey that it was “shady” so I did not do much to brighten it. Does it need further brightening?

Love it Dave. Terrific catch. I might consider cropping down from the top to remove the bit in the upper right corner. Well seen.

I love the pose, Dave. You might take enough off the top to get rid of that bit of green-it does pull my eye quite a bit.
