The fattest, fluffiest, healthiest looking squirrel I have ever seen. He lives in Hogsback Park, Ottawa, and I've decided to call him Maurice. He seems quite tame.
Crop, fiddle with curves, USM, save for web.

8 - Good capture. Excellent coloring. Good detail. Criticism; difficult, but perhaps even sharper if possible (obviously camera/lens dependent), especially on that fur, (I like the pose/detail in the arms/fore paws) - like to be able to see more detail in those feet/claws too, but difficult to capture 'it all' in the squirrel. Perhaps a tighter crop (or even a vertical framing, not sure) enabling more 'zoom'/closer (quality dependent), may have also made this even better in my opinion. Like the 'context' of the brown 'twigs' top left, adds another element, which would obviously be lost in a vertical framing so who knows.
Composition: 3, I question why you didn't take more time nd get him without the distracting little limb accross his body.
Technical: 5
Appeal: 5
