Peanutty Smile

"Peanutty Smile"

Scribblings
Nibbles could always find room for one more peanut in his cheeks! This smile was going to burst into a laugh...if his cheeks could stretch that far!

The Story Behind the Shot
I never suspected a $5 vintage peanut tin would lead to one of my favorite shots. The setup was simple, but the timing was pure magic. I watched as this little chipmunk gathered his treasures, stuffing his cheeks until they were completely full. I was holding the shutter release down and the camera was going full-tilt boogie. It caught "Nibbles" as he tried to fit one last peanut in; it lay perfectly across his mouth to create a genuine "peanuty smile."
