Description

That moment when you are totally focused on your goal and it seems like everything in the world doesn't matter except what you're trying to obtain...I feel like this was one of those moments.

This little squirrel just sat there nomming away on a little nut, and it was [as in the picture] on a little rock surrounded by leaves. I slowly crept forward, keeping my finger on the camera button, waiting for any sudden movement from the squirrel.

I crunched on some leaves no matter how softly I walked and I held my breath because I thought any moment the squirrel would be scared off, but no the moment I got about 3 feet away from it, the squirrel finished the nut it had been eating, threw down the hull and looked at me.

And in that moment it was just me and the squirrel, looking eye to eye [at least its what it felt like]. I could hear people around me looking at me and the squirrel saying " That's so cool it's like it knows it's getting it's picture taken!" Other people noticed the moment as well.

But the experience of the squirrel just stopping and looking straight at me was shock-and-awe because most run away, forget having someone three feet close to them. It was amazing! Especially for an animal lover like me! ^^;

I know it sounds a bit silly but it was exhilarating and exciting to me! :)

And it's not just me, other people have moments too, where things just slow down and everything else is farther away and stuff :P

Hope art and animal lovers both enjoy! :heart:
