| I think this is pretty funny. Squirrels are difficult to photograph but fun entertainers. |

First impression is that this suffered because of the way people were interpretation the challenge.
Second impression is that is hurts my eyes. There is so much different texture the whole thing seems really busy. The Texture of the squirrel clashes horribly with the texture of the grass.
Focus is GREAT, which only enhances the textures, so in a way, it might be a bad thing with the squirrel against this background.
It's a fun image for sure. Definately not something you'd see every day.
I think the colors are great, and lighting appears ok as well. I don't know how well squirrel's eyes do catchlights, but I wonder if maybe some fill flash might have added a little depth to his eyes?
I think the negative space to the rear of the squirrel seems odd. Generally, we see negative space to the front of the subject, and I think that would have been a better choice for this image as well. With the negative space to the right, my attention is drawn to his rear, and I think it would be more beneficial to be drawn to the face, and the 'action' of the photo.
Overall a fun image, with maybe too much clashing textures, but suffered for challenge reference.

That "squirrely mood". :) Nicely done, much better (if a bit too centered) than mine.

| Photograph a portrait that says something about the subject within the framework of their own environment. |

| great title ...ist. I like the subject but more more dramatic lighting would draw the subject from the background a little. |
