Full view PLEASE!

This is my little dude Aedan. He's always been very small and of poor health, but he never gives up.
I'm gonna try entering this in 's Domestic Animal contest. Link to the blog --->[link] . I'm no photographer, in my whole life this is the best photo I've ever taken... Haa.... I doubt I'll win, but it'll be fun
I couldn't have done this without *DianePhotos 's tutorial on photographing and editing pics of small mammals Thanks! You can see the tutorial here --->[link]

They do? Usually their ears are higher on their head, but my rats are "dumbo" rats, which just means their ears are lower.

Thank you!

And btw, rats seemed so much easy to photograph with that tutorial.. O_o
Like.. I had a squirrel, but I don't think I would ever be able to catch him. XD
He used to be running around all the time.

Wow, haha. Yeah I think rats are a lot more tame than your squirrel! The biggest problem with photographing rats is they have fast movements, so even if they just turn their head, the picture is ruined because it's way to fast for the camera.

Indeed, small animals tend to be faster.
Maybe because they can get lots of energy faster than big animals. o:
I mean, the biggest you are, the more you'll need to eat.

When I was younger I wanted to be a writer more than an artist, I'd try to write novels lol, but I kinda forgot about all that... Nowadays I don't really write, but I'm working on a graphic novel currently, but it's only in the brainstorm stage

Yeah, I think everybody has a story to tell... But it isn't that easy to do so.

Aw, he's so cute. I love the colors of the rat and the background, It makes the rat stand out.

Cool! I put a lot of effort in trying to separate Aedan from the background while still making both look interesting
