The following comments are meant to be helpful. I realize that they may sound harsh and even bruise your ego, this is not my intent. Please accept my apology in advance if I sound too much like Simon Cowell.
The possums face is not in focus. It seems only the rear 1/3 of his body has crisp focus. However, I understand that there was very little light to help you focus. I doubt I could get as much in focus as you did. It looks as if this was a very tough shot to get; perhaps you were on your belly to get this great perspective.
Your post processing could be neater. You should not burn (make darker) areas of a photo without a selection. If you had a selection around his eyes, nose and widows peak, your attempts at burning wouldn't be so apparent. The post processing of photos is analogous to a woman applying make up. Both look excellent when you can't tell either has been used.
If you are willing to pay for shipping, I have some Photoshop books I’d be willing to send you. PM me if you are interested.
poor little night vision fella.. with the big light in his eye. lol. I'm just learning but the face seems a tad over exposed.. still a great shot though :)
Very funny expression on the 'possum. It looks a bit blown out around his face and perhaps less sharp than could be desired. Not an easy capture at this light level, I imagine.
