Cleaning Squirrel[edit]

An Eastern Gray Squirrel cleaning his tail.

I think this picture would be great because you don't often see a picture of a squirrel doing this. I took this picture May 6th, 2007 and it really started to grew on me. I haven't edited this image at all.

  • Sorry, but this really doesn't have much of a chance. I like to judge detail by seeing how far an image can be downsampled until it begins to loose detail to see the actual resolution - how much information there actually is as opposed to a pixel count. Unfortunately, I took it down to ~.7 megapixels without any real loss - that means that, by my observation, there really is only 1 pixel for every 9 pixels actually present in the photograph. It isn't your fault, but featured pictures really do make every pixel count. This seems to be the result of excessive in-camera noise reduction; if there is an option to turn it off, I would definitely consider doing so. It would get complaints about blown headlights and purple fringing. I love the picture, but I really don't think it will fare well at FPC. J Are you green? 20:42, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
