The sky is a bit dull (maybe a tighter crop would have helped seeing less of it)– but a great capture!

Image seems a bit flat to me. The negative space doesnt do a whole lot and I feel like I want the colors to be more vibrant. Fun capture though.

Tilted? Looks like the poor critter is about to lose his grip!

Colors and contrast are a bit dull, I'm afraid. Some curves adjustments would help that. A good tutorial on curves is on DPC right here.

Also, your file size is a lot smaller than was allowed. It's only 35k and you could have used up to 150k for this challenge. You have certainly lost some clarity and detail to JPEG compression. Check the JPEG compression settings in your image editor and always try to save as close to the limit for a challenge as you can get it without going over.

Nice idea but it's a bit lost in the large amount of featureless sky

Nice image. The focus seems rather soft tho:, & some cropping is needed to the right. To much dead space (IMHO).
