Took me a while to get it right but very pleased with the results. For more of my work, please check my 500PX gallery.

Great get.
"Took me a while to get it right" How many chances does one get to capture a squirrel jumping at the camera and framed so well?

Nicely framed up with it jumping through the foliage. Love the pose too.

Great action capture. The head on view with selective focus is superb!

Superb!
This also reminds me of an important (but often overlooked) adage:
You don't need to aim your lens at lions, tigers and bears (oh my!)- to achieve great wildlife imagery.

Oh my what a wonderful capture this is! Rocket J. Squirrel (of Rocky and Bullwinkle fame) lives...
The framing using the leaves and focus on the face and front feet of the squirrel just could not be better.
