Lovely encounter on a walk last weekend. The weather wasn't as nice as I had hoped and it was almost too dark for photos but luckily the squirrel sat on the path where the light was slightly better than under the trees of the forest.

Thank you very much for your comments and for your faves.

I was in love with this scene, but had a hard time photographing it. Sometimes you can really love a scene in person and think, this will be so much fun to photograph. Then you start looking through the camera, and things can change. You have to start paying attention to foregrounds, subjects, leading lines, the eyes path of travel and things like that. And it seems odd that the place can be so interesting as you are standing there, but the camera fights you.
I loved the pathway, so I tried to lean into that as a leading line. Then you walk that balance, too much? Too little? I knew I also wanted your eye to lead to the big Christmas tree on the right. I shot a bracket, a series of 5 different exposures, so I could play with blending the scene later. Once home, I used the different tones to also try to pull the viewer through the scene. Let me know what you think.

Follow where paths roam,
Adventure finds its home,
Even where it leads to none.
Built around many trees and plants this path named La Vallee within Parc de Bercy is simply breathtaking.
