Very nice series here Wayne of the Porcupine. I really like the second shot for the pose however it has a grey hazed look and I suspect this came from trying to tone down the highlites with the Shadow/Higlites slider in PS.

cool shots, ive never seen one in the wild either. I think they are a bit too bright though you lost quite a bit of detail in the hilights.

Great shots, Wayne. Definitely want to stay in front of those guys. I didn't know they were tree climbers.
