I took Emilie's good critique to heart, but had no thought of posting this. She asked to see it...some subtle changes, so here you are.
Just as important was that Holly let me know the 21st was *Squirrel Appreciation Day*. Some inner voice obviously led me to selecting this image to work on! I have to share (in the off chance that anyone is still reading this third in the series) that I take a great deal of pleasure in having been the first person to use the tag "squirrel" here on 365!
@teiko as you requested... @hbdaly... I don't suppose anyone celebrated one little squirrel as much as I did with this one! He should feel *VERY* appreciated!
@teiko In Photoshop, there's a choice of "blur" "Sharpen" or "smudge" I couldn't recall what the latter was called...the icon is a finger. FYI, only "push" a small amount at a time or your computer will lock up for the evening! So thanks!
Oh I missed your squirrel series! So sorry I wasn't there with help and tips. I'm not an expert but the trail and error period is far behind me so I know my way. Let me know if you need some info (next time :-)
