A Curious Squirrel Captured in the Calm Beauty of the Forest

This photo of a squirrel is quite engaging, with the subject sitting on a branch. It has a lot of texture in the brown and white fur. You can see light touch its resolution and its soft, fluffy tail that hangs up at the back, opening toward the sky. There is a subtle sense of movement in the curve of its tail. Each bit of texture in the whiskers and even the brightness of the eyes conveys a sense of life and quality of charm in the subject. The softly blurred background is green and conveys the feeling of the woods. The soft blur in the background allows the squirrel to stand out while keeping it rooted in the forest atmosphere.
