Funny, I recently saw a squirrel performing some crazy acrobatics in an apparently desperate search for food. This guy was climbing through the upper branches of a persimmon tree, when in order to reach something on a nearby branch, he suspended himself from his little toes, completely upside down, and stretched downward still further. Seeing a squirrel hanging upside down was really weird, and he hung there for kind of a while. Agile little fellow that he was, he finished his business and continued clambering around without a single misstep.
Anyway. I think the major thing this triptych could have used was a closer crop on the squirrel/bird feeder... something that takes us close to the action and really lets us see what's going on. I liked this picture, though - it made me smile.
edited for grammar ~_~

| 3 - Good potential. Criticism; frame doesn't suit and detracts too much in my opinion. Obviously size restrictions, but not enough detail, or rather clarity, in the squirrel and his robbery. Good shots, maybe a tighter crop/closer, depending on quality/ability to do so. |

I have the same situation with my feeder and squirrels. But... I'm curious as to what was the reason for choosing this style of frame - the thickness and the color? They don't seem to be the perfect match with the image.
Also, the individual images could have been cropped somewhat tighter, to better show the squirrel. |

| hehehe, very cute series of photos. fits the challenge nicely IMO. They go together very well. I'm not sure if I'm crazy about that blue for a border though. In this case, maybe the classic white or black could be stronger? Or maybe even going with a more earthy tone, or try to tie in with the neutral colors of the squirrel or bird feeder. |

| Aren't these guys the worst? Little piggies. I like the progression of the photos here but question the color you used for the background. |

| Cute, but I think the small canvas size is hurting you. |

| This is cute but the blue border just doesn't work for me. Since this is a nature photo I think a more natural color such as green or brown would have really helped this triptych. |

| An interesting series of pictures. But I think that the squirrel needs to fill more of the frame. And the blue/maeve/violet does not work for the frame. |

| This is a cute scene - good capture. The bluish-purple frame doesn't really seem to fit - might be nice with all black or maybe pick up one of the colors from the image (brick red, dark green, or gray). |

| I think this would have looked better if you had zoomed closer onf the squirrel/bird feeder. That way, there would have been more detail shown. |

| Well captured, but I would have cropped in more on the squirrell. Also, the purple frame fights with the other colors. You'd have done better with plain black and narrower. |

| I gave this one my highest score out of all. I am sure the originals are more in focus, but I am a nature lover, and I like the fact that you got the feeder in perfect alignment in each one, yet show the squirrel in a different position each time. I have also experienced this "robbery" before :) I find it amusing and well done. Wish the background was a different color, but like it just the same. |
