Endika is right, Collin. Your animal shots are priceless, extreme or not ;-) --Stefan

You have kept a lot of detail in this image, he's a cute guy. You are a specialist in these kind of shots.

If you messed up the white balance initially it is certainly corrected in this image,, looks very natural,,you are lucky you caught the little guy,, today, I missed a ground hog, that was only 15 feet away from me, turned and did not have the camera ready,,

I'm impressed! Handheld bigma at 1/100 mut take some pretty steady hands.

Amazing that you still can see the reflections in this little cuties eyes! I love the stripes on your mouse's back, how neat is that! We don't have any racing mice here, only ground squirrels(aka. striped Gopher).

When I saw the thumbnail, I thought "chipmunk" - never having seen a striped mouse before. This is an endearing shot and I think the extremes have given it an interesting "painterly" effect. In fact, I'm finding that many of these high-ISO images are taking on the textural quality of art work - like oils, watercolors, acrylics or oil pastels.
