The only thing I'm really seeing in these photos is stopped motion. I don't really understand the four squirrel pictures at the beginning, were you trying to catch it in motion? Also, it looked like your friend had some sort of bubble wand, I would be interested in seeing a motion series focusing on bubbles in the future.
The squirrel gets lost in the grass in these photos because there isn't very much contrast. There is one blurred motion of the squirrel but the rest of the images are freeze frame, so more variety would be awesome. Also, a more intentional subject matter would strengthen your images.
(I know that your feet were injured and you have had a tough week.)The squirrels on campus are a interesting choice of motion pictures if you try out some interesting angles and different technics. Also it will be better if you take some close up pictures of our friend Jelly.
Like Davis said, the squirrels didn't really help you demonstrate motion. I felt like your photos needed more contrast and you needed to be closer to the subjects or more zoomed in. The last two pictures gave me the impression that you were creeping on them and watching them from far away.
I think closer cropped compositions and higher levels of contrast could really help to push these images to their full potential. I think a series on motion focusing on animals could be really cool if you captured them with more obvious signs of motion.
I think you should've taken some different compositions and perspective with your photos, I personally think that they were taken too far away to have a dramatic impact. Also, I think you should have played around with a slower shutter speed more.
Hmmmm, I feel like I'm seeing too much background and not enough subject! Next time try out getting closer your subjects (if possible, I know how difficult animals are to photograph) and really think about the composition of your photos. I think what you photographed has a lot of potential to be great! :)
