The jump by Karl Samitsch, Austria. While visiting the Cairngorms, Scotland, a friend took Karl to a forest where red squirrels were used to being fed. They placed hazelnuts on opposite branches of two trees and Karl positioned his camera on a tripod facing the direction a squirrel might jump. Setting his camera to automatic focus, he waited behind a tree, holding a remote control. After less than an hour, two squirrels appeared. As they leapt between the branches, he used the high-speed burst mode on his camera, and of the 150 frames, four were sharp, and this one perfectly captured the moment.
