Thanks! I realize it would've been more appropriate for the fauna challenge. (Well, how was I to know that would've been the topic for this week?)Anyway as an explanation, I don't think I would've been able to get this relaxed shot were it not for the heat in Texas. It was running away from me all the time, but was hot one afternoon and didn't feel like moving because it was obviously tired from the heat. The challenge guidelines said something about the effects of climate on the environment, and this is the environment! Jitams |

| This is an incredible photo of a squirrel. And the title makes you understand his expression - whew, it's hot!! The poor little guy is just plain old tuckered out!! The detail you have achieved on this squirrel is excellent, and I like the DOF!!! |

| Great shot but it should be under the Fauna challenge or another animal challenge. |

| Good use of the rule of thirds. Nice composition color and clarity |

| Thats a cool shot. Hard to see the 'weather' though |

| Will he come back for the "Fauna" challenge? Beautiful detail and color. Fits the challenge? |

| This would have been great for next week's challenge, but it just doesn't say weather to me. |

| Technically perfect! Doesn't fit to the topic too well (even with the title), but I must admit that I would have submitted this picture too if I would have made it. |

| Wow, excellent composition, a very candid/relax shot of an animal, the image is so beautiful and its perfect for the current challenge. Please go back and re-shoot this animal and submit it for the current challenge. |

| I feel you knew this was a great photo and just titled it to try and fit the challenge. A weather photo should speak for itself. This doesn`t say weather to me. |

| This shot would have done very well in the fauna challenge!! Even a ribbon winner for sure, but that's life huh? Anyway it is an excellent image, well cropped and the shallow DOF does wonders for it. |

| nice. how'd you get so close to this squirrel |
|
|
|
04/15/2003 09:41:10 PM |
| Hey! This is a great shot of the squirrel. This would be so much better in the animal challenge. Although the title says there's heat, I don't really think this applies to the weather challenge. He's so cute!! You would definately of won the animal challenge with this |
|

|
04/15/2003 03:17:04 PM |
| So Cute. Great shot. nice focus. Streaching the weather thing arn't we? I would have added a simple white boarder. |

|

|
04/15/2003 02:20:08 PM |
| doesn't really relate to 'weather' that much |
|
|
|
04/15/2003 02:19:43 PM |
| While I really like this picture, I don't think it fits the challenge well. You should have showed us more about the heat. Therefore I will have to subtract a few points, which is hard to do as the photo itself is near perfect :(. |
|

04/15/2003 12:05:54 PM |
| This would be a great photo for coming DPChallenge, Fauna. I love it and wonder how you were able to get so close to subject!! Squirrels in my yard are too energitic. |
|

| I think this is a great picture however, if it were not for the title I would not have made any connection whatsoever to the current challenge. I don't think a photo’s legitimacy, as a challenge entry should be based upon the title, just my two cents. Full technical marks for the shot, but the weather aspect if too much of a stretch. |

| Cute little critter. This is a good photograph (nice use of DOF, diffused lighting, nice highlights in the eyes, composition) but I don't feel it meets the weather challenge. I try to judge the merits of a photograph itself. If I need the title to tie the submission to the challenge, then I don't feel the submission qualifies for the challenge topic, which is the case here. |

| This photo would be better suited for this next weeks challenge. (Fauna). Well done with the shoot itself though. |

| This is one shot that should have been saved for the fauna challenge. It's such a cute and well done photo. You are really stretching by trying to fit this picture into this challenge. I would have voted a 10 had it been in the fauna challenge. That's how good this one is. DOF is great and the expression on the squirrel's face is priceless. |

04/14/2003 07:19:48 PM |
| Not much of anything to do with weather all you did was add a title...if I did not know any better I would have thought this picture was for next week...you get a 1 |

Fabulouos photo! I love the colors of the squirrel, the blurred background, the texture of the wood. The clarity of the face is excellent. I give your photo a 9.
Squirrels don't usually stay around long enough for a photo. Is he on the tame side? |

| I don't think it will win weather but it sure could have taken fauna! 9 |

| Great expressios you've captured on its face, good focus, very apt title. One of the very few animal shots I've seen that I actually like! 8. |

| Hehe. Fabulous entry for this week's challenge! Despite title (I don't like it when the title has to explain a shot's relevance entirely), I can't see this as a weather shot as the challenge is stated. Hope you can get another one for this week! |
