INSPIRATIONS

01 WILL YOU? BY HENRIK SPRANZ

Henrik’s wonderful shot of two European ground squirrels is the deserved winner of this month’s Perfect Moment contest. He’s done a fantastic job at capturing this delightfully emotive image, making sure the squirrels were frozen in time with a fast shutter speed. Shooting at ground level has also created a more intimate perspective too. The colours are soft and gentle and the pose of the squirrels is perfect – with great foreground and background blur by shooting at f/5 and a 400mm focal length.

Lens Canon EF 400mm f/2.8L IS USM

Exposure 1/2000 sec, f/5, ISO640
