 Our hedgie loved the warmth of the lights, but not the brightness. I didn't want to keep her too long, so I didn't get this quite as I'd like. The lighting could be better and I don't like the line in the white background - gotta get bigger sheets of paper!

How about the finger shown in a recoiling motion?

Oh, hope you didn't scare him too much! They are such cute little things, one of the few animals I have never owned :)

A good shot overall, the color, the clarity and the cropping is well done but the border hurts this shot on the sides, too heavy for the rest of the border and the shot. Also if the crop was just a bit higher on the top, showing a bit much more of the hand. Started at a 7, finishing with an 8

the border is a bit wide.

I LOVE hedgehogs! :-) I hope you threated this one well. :-)
I like the shot very much, only the horizontal line (probably the edge of the wall or paper) distracts me, maybe skin tone could have been adjusted a bit, and personally I would prefer if the border would be equal wide everywhere. All together lovely composition and idea!

I'm not seeing suprised here. It's a great shot, wonderful definition/composition. And not many people have access to a real hedgehog. I like the border treatment.

Cute! Unusual composition and viewpoint. Somewhat abstract. I like the whimsical nature of it.

funny! Made me laugh :)
Some comments, that faint horizontal line in the center is a minor distraction
the color tones of the hand would look nice dulled a little, maybe turn down the red saturation ;)
I don't like how the border are a different thickness on the top and sides.
overall, great shot!

*laugh* Best shot yet (am maybe 80% through them). Fits the challenge perfectly and made me laugh. Nice crisp focus, good lighting, great cropping. Excellent.
