It is hard for me to make out anything granular in this photo. It is good composition, but the animal looks dead!

Like the tone, colors and composition. It looks almost like an aquarel to me. Very nice.

i had a pair of these growing up and i think they are just wonderful creatures. the crop makes him feel trapped to me but still worth a 10 vote to me

Cool-- We have a chinchilla too! So I know how hard it is to get good pictures of them (I'm fairly new and haven't learned everything you can adjust on the camera, and our Ruby is a very hyper girl, so my pictures of her are a grey blur) This is very good, and original--much more interesting than salt or sand. 9

Now, there's something you don't see everyday...a chinchilla (right?) taking a dust bath. I love it, and the softness of the focus is okay, but it would be neat if it were a bit sharper. I love the bit of pink in the ear, and the subtle tones. FUN capture!
