I wish I could chase that squirrel

Uploaded: November 14, 2007

Description

My buddy Barney was watching a squirrel and in total concentration mode.
When you say squirrel, his ears pop up and looks all over for them LOL.
If I let him off his chain, he would be gone right after them!
Trying out the sepia setting.
Comment's welcome and Have a GREAT Day!!!

8/16/07, late afternoon, 1/45 sec, 14.80 aperture, 73.00mm, ISO 140.

With the sepia tones he looks like a "nostalgic" dog from the 1940's! lol:) Love your choice of color tones....well done, Peaches! #5071431

Certainly does look like an old photo, great use of the sepia effects. Barney is like my cats with the Bandicoots, they'd be after them in a flash if only that door would open. Good work=^..^= #5071549

Peaches- Wonderful shot of my old buddy that used to go with me everywhere. He loved riding shotgun.
Very interesting use of the sepia and gave the photo a wonderful touch.
Super my friend
Enjoy your day #5072586

What an adorable capture of Barney. I like the old fashioned look the sepia filter gives it!!! #5075510

Mary K. Robison November 14, 2007

LOVE this capture of Barney, Peaches! Talk about an intense look ~ he is totally oblivious to anything that isn't brown with a bushy tail!
I can really picture his reaction to the word "squirrel": frantically whipping his head around --- kinda like Riley, our indoor cat, racing from one window to the next, searching for the outdoor cat, who's long since gone! LOL!

P.S. The sepia treatment looks terrific! #5075776

Nancy (Peaches) Harker November 15, 2007

Barney,
This is a great self-portrait!!

And the sepia was a neat choice. Good work!!:):)
Just having fun at Peaches expense to make her smile a little!
