Austrian photographer Julian Rad probably has the most amusing shots of squirrels, hamsters, and foxes anyone has ever seen. The lovable wildlife shots are available on his Instagram account and you won’t resist falling in love with the adorable images at first sight.
His most notable work was the image of a running hamster, titled “Rush hour” that won him the renowned comedy Wildlife Photography Award” back in 2015.
While the world is focused on the Big Five and hunting expeditions, ignoring the busy lives and struggles of small animals. Especially with skittish and quick animals like rodents, capturing them at the perfect moment can be an uphill task. But Julian has mastered his craft well and captures them with a wild subject.
Capturing a wild hamster climbing a strawberry branch or a ground squirrel that enjoys sniffing a flower, these images evoke strong emotions in the vivid stories each one tells. It seems like wildlife photographers have an unlimited supply of patience, waiting for just the perfect moment.
