great comp but maybe to much PP here. I wish that the forground was more blured.

Cute capture but looks over-processed/sharpened IMHO.

A bit too over sharpened for my taste, but cute squirrel

I think it needs to be a lot sharper.

Cute shot, and nice composition, but I think the technicals will bring it down: seems to be a very noisy and low resolution.

It appears that something is wrong with the postprocessing. Maybe there is too much contrast or sharpening.

This looks way over-processed.

ok i like the capture, but the picture quality is not so good. But hey this should not be a camera competition

Nice pose but way over sharpened.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Sorry...this is overshapened from my perspective. His hair looks bristly rather than soft. (More like a hedgehog I guess)

waaaay over-sharpened.

Grainy and a bit blurry. Background is a bit distracting.

I like you composition and the pose of the squirrel. Its a shame that the image is quite 'noisy' with lots of purple pixels especially in the background, also it seems a bit oversharpened. The colours arent very appealing either, but maybe if you converted it to black and white it might appear a but easier on the eye! Good luck in future challanges!

Don't know what went wrong here - but you've ruined your picture in postprocessing it seems.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I am sure you might be getting lot of comments on post processing. I don't want to repeat that. Best of luck..

Pose is nice; don't care for the grain so much.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This pose is very cute. I think the image would be better if it was not sharpened this much.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

You had a great shot, nice composition and interesting behavior, but you ruined it with postprocessing. (I hope that you started with a good image, it would be worth posting your original in a thread after the challenge and asking for suggestions on how to process it better).
Oversharpening is evident, and serves no purpose - does not enhance the photo at all.

Seems oversaturated and a bit soft in focus. Somewhat grainy.
