You're welcome AFB.
LOL, all so very true! Welcome to the world of wildlife photography. I've said the exact same things a number of times and I have a number of camera bags in my closet to go along with those sentiments.

ummm. ok.
judging by your response, I am getting a vibe that the Lady in your pic might be a relative of yours

Again, I'm lost with what you're trying to say. No she's not a relative of mine, just a random woman on the street.
that's fortunate, I would have hated if that had happened.
regarding my original comment, your pic just reminded me of that scene in the movie, Requiem for a Dream by Darren Aronofsky. That's all.
Thereafter, I also hoped this wasn't a relative of yours, as in that particular scene I posted the pic of, the character was experiencing a severe psychotic breakdown.
While this wasn't the main reason my brain made the correlation with your pic, but mostly because of the right handed angle, and the age of the subject, I hoped it wasn't perceived as a reference that the photographed subject, which might have been a relative of yours, that was in a similar distressing situation.
hope this vaguely clears my intentions
Taken from just up and to the left, behind the jetty from the other day.

Looks like you might have knocked the camera a little on a couple of shots. Either that or the earth is falling out of the sky!
Ive taken a lot of pics but not allowed to post them yet... iPhone shots will have to do!

I, too, have seen that film and in looking at the referenced photo see exactly why this film and Ellen Burstyn's character came to mind..... That is one powerful and disturbing movie. The cinematography and the way it was handled, too, was intriguing and different. I fully understand why this image reminded you of that film. Just wanted to offer some support here in case you felt you were out in left field. You're not. You're right on the money.
I like the composition, but the squirrel itself is a bit too dark.
And if this was in our backyard I have asked you to kill it.
I was in France so had been on the vino.....
think I also dropped my SLT that night onto the patio at one point
A little fill flash would help here, as would an angle without the blurred branch.

Thank you all for your thoughts. Sorry to be so long replying, I've been waiting for the light to be right to try a different version. Tried this a few minutes ago, more of a straightforward version this time.
