It's a beautiful picture actually, but to my eyes it's way overprocessed.

This just made my eyes buggy. The background is really fighting with the texture of the animals coat. Maybe a little blur would help here.

Aww, how sweet. My eyes are "tricked" a bit when looking at your background. In some ways it kind of looks like a cloth type backdrop. I like the browns on the animal though, nice contrast to the rest of your image.

What a cool looking creature (llama?) and a great setting. Unfortunately I am not fond of your processing, the animal looks cut and pasted onto the background. Sorry.

Do not care for the HDR :(

Wow! Here's some extreme use of the HDR effect... Normally I'm a fan, but I think this would look better as a painting or with a more painted feel applied. 6

Odd mix of colors

The HDR here is very distracting.
