EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment of pure curiosity and alertness in the animal kingdom. In the vast expanse of Etosha National Park, Namibia, on April 22,1998, Christopher Gable and Sally Gable skillfully captured the essence of a Ground Squirrel standing tall on its hind legs with its head turned. The image showcases the remarkable agility and balance of this small mammal as it stands upright, showcasing its slender body and delicate paws. Bathed in warm sunlight, every detail is brought to life - from the texture of its fur to the intricate markings that adorn its coat. With an air of intrigue surrounding it, this Cape Ground Squirrel seems to be stalking something just out of frame. Its keen sense of awareness is palpable; every muscle appears taut with anticipation. The vertical composition emphasizes both the squirrel's height and vulnerability against a backdrop that stretches endlessly into the distance. This snapshot serves as a reminder that even amidst vast landscapes teeming with wildlife, there are moments where individual creatures steal our attention. With no human presence in sight, we are invited into their world for just an instant – witnessing their beauty firsthand. Christopher Gable and Sally Gable have immortalized this enchanting encounter through their lens; allowing us to appreciate nature's wonders through their artistry.
