Photographer Captures Charming, Extraordinary Pictures of Wild Squirrels Being Very Curious

Photographer Geert Weggen has a beautiful gift for getting the most out of the subjects of his portraits. And he has definitely got his work cut out for him, as his subjects of choice are not humans—they are red squirrels. Animals always come with an extraordinary set of photographic challenges, but Weggen can make it look easy with effortless photos of the creatures interacting with little props including balloons, shopping carts, and a makeshift bow and arrow. The resulting photographs, captured with a Nikon 810, are adorable squirrel pictures which showcase these animals' curiosity and gregarious personalities.


How does Weggen capture such delightfully candid pictures? It helps to have a lot of potential subjects. “There are about 12 red squirrels living in the forest close to my house,” he told My Modern Met in an email. “Many I do not recognize anymore.” While they may be wary of Weggen at first, they soon understand that he is the one “providing the food” and quickly warm up to him.


Along with appealing to the squirrels’ voracious appetites, the photographer has also streamlined his setup for these photos. “At the side of my house I made an outside studio,” he explained. “Half with a roof and the rest is open for the rain and snow. From my kitchen window, I can shoot [photos].” Weggen also built a table in his studio which is at eye level so that he can arrange his scenes, hide the food, and inconspicuously snap photographs. The location is key, as well, for making it easy for the animals to approach. “The studio is directly connected with the forest and trees,” he said. “I hide a flash behind some scenes on a remote.”


Weggen teaches his techniques in workshops and sells his pictures in the form of books, calendars, and postcards in his online shop.

  6. I am one of those people who said, “I’ll never call a psychic or a magician or whatever” to help me with my problems – least of all my love problems, but I reached the point where I knew I needed some guidance, and I’m so glad I found this man called dr.ajeghe. When I nearly lost David in one of our stupid,fights (he broke up with me), I thought I had lost everything.i cry all day and think that he will never come back to me again.i read so many testimony about Dr. ajeghe love spell,how he help to bring back ex lover back.I quickly email him.and also get back my husband with his love spell. And when I was at my most desperate,he didn’t take advantage of me. You performed a very good service for a person in true need. I don’t know how you did it, or how this magic works, but all I know is, IT WORKS!! David my husband and I are happily back together, and I’ll always be grateful to dr.ajeghe email him for any kinds of help is very capable and reliable for help ajeghespelltemple@gmail.com or WhatsApp him +2349069171173

  7. That was a great and comprehensive article…all the tips enumerated and explained will be helpful for those who are wise enough to tap from it. Any business nowadays without social media signals and presence may not make it to the outermost, and investment too is part of the key to success in business. Keep up the good work.
