Acorn Acquisitor

This funny fellow was digging through my leaf-laden backyard, poking his nose in search of nuts. He struck pay dirt, and quickly scampered off.

Sometimes when focusing on one subject, it is not always necessary to cover the whole. If I included the rest of this squirrel, the focus would have shifted away from the eyes and the prize acorn held in his paw.

The same can be done with people, flowers, you name it. The viewer is then drawn to the heart of the subject.
