Just for Fun

Probably the most common feedback I give people is to let their image breath a little and provide space for the subject to take action (Ie don't crop so tightly) Well in the interest of fairness, I know that can't always happen. Here is an example.

While walking through the yard of a house whose garden I am taking care of, I saw a small pile of dirt under some brush. I assumed it was something like a ground hog digging a new burrow so I bent down to take a look. And it looked right back at me! This little cutie was so well camouflaged that I almost didn't get what I was looking at while we were practically nose to nose. I jumped up. And, because I almost always have a camera, whipped it out, squatted down and snapped a quick photo. Then I left quickly because I didn't want to freak him out. This is what I got! Tight crop and all. So, sometime good composition loses out to what you get.

I know this isn't a great shot. I just wanted to share the story and the sighting! But - if you'd like to give feedback, its always welcome.
