Hello NatureScapers:

I have a few minutes break at work so I thought I would sneak in here and get a motif post in... This image was made at Custer State Park in May..

Thanks to everyone that has been able to post and comment during a very busy time of year.. Happy Holidays to all my NatureScapes friends.

=====

PS I will post the techs tonight when I get home..

Wonderful fur ball with attitude Dennis! You have indeed posted some memorable shots in this gallery. It has been a pleasure to participate here and the effort both you and Cheryl put in to view and comment on each and every one is a credit to you both.

Thank you and have a wonderful Holiday with your nearest and dearest, followed by a great 2004.

I look forward to exchanging some more images with you and NatureScapes as we progress!!

Best Wishes.

Great shot Dennis. I love the pose and the fact that you can see the little teeth. The lifted paw is a bonus as well.

Fine looking image, Dennis.

The teeth and raised paw, along with the great BG make this one shine.

Dennis, in spite of the need of a thorough tooth cleaning, this critter is adorable! The raised paw is great, and the technicals are perfect, like usual. Happy Holidays to you too, and thanks for all you do here.

I echo these sentiments!

P.S.: Your shot ought to have a cuteness alert!

Hey Dennis,

This is cool, but I'd like a tad less of the f/g here. Looks like maybe the face isn't quite as sharp as it could be, but the way things have looked here lately, I have no idea. The pose is cool.

Cheers

Carl
