Undertoad Friday Jun 6 12:25 PM6/6/2003: Squirrel with candy
Happy Friday! Resistance is useless for this shot from last week's MSNBC Week in Pics: if you don't smile, you probably need therapy.
It's also a superior photo as you see how the focus is spot-on. The peanut butter cup and the animal's nose are in focus; the focus draws the eye to a kind of natural flow around the picture. And you know this beast didn't sit there and pose... it probably lingered there for about a half second. That's some fine work.
dar512 Friday Jun 6 01:11 PMThis one needs the proper quote to go with it. It's very obvious what the squirrell is thinking:
"What? What are you staring at? Do I have something stuck in my teeth?"
warch Friday Jun 6 01:32 PMHow do you eat your Reeses?
hairdog Friday Jun 6 01:51 PMOr, for those of us who are older:
Hey! You got chocolate in my peanut butter!
Griff Friday Jun 6 03:08 PMAfter remembering warch's squirrel terror bit, I'm hoping Tony isn't putting too much weight on this no smile = therapy deal.
Beletseri Friday Jun 6 03:29 PMIf Reese's doesn't pick that up for print ads they are nuttier than their peanut butter.
dar512 Friday Jun 6 04:15 PMI've been trying to think what this picture reminds me of and it just came to me. Have you seen the squirrel in Ice Age?
xoxoxoBruce Friday Jun 6 04:42 PMI saw this picture on another site. It was 1/2 an animated gif. The other half was 2 dead squirels and a rifle.

I was thinking the same thing. Not only is the picture very technically well-done (as UT pointed out), but the Reese's logo couldn't be any more prominent if they tried!
