Lovely detail in the fur, I can feel it without touching. An the eyes are beautifully clear.

eta: I was so intent on the photo, that I missed that impressive score. Nice!

I like this crop better too. I like the glow and the subtle radiant lines of the drop cloth.

Good going. Beautiful shot. And not easy to get the detail and still keep the fur a lovely white. Nice the way the background emphasizes the color of the eye.

Oh my, look at that well deserved score. A beautiful portrait of a very fine looking beast. ;)

Love the effect. Seems perfect for the subject. Looks almost like a wood block print.

So this is the new guinea pig. How irresistible! And a fine portrait too.

I love the way you filled the frame with the close-up. A real portrait. He looks rather disdainful of your project. And I like the little bit of green framing his face on the right. I'm surprised at the score. I don't understand the ten 3s. I accept the few troll votes, but the 3s are uncalled for.

Wonderful creation. How amazing and encouraging that the voters appreciated it as it deserved. Congratulations on the top ten placement and the five, so far, favorites.

Over exposed -- the highlights are blown out and there is a general washed out look to the colors. Much of this could be improved with a few photoshop adjustments, although once the highlights are blown, the detail can't be recovered. It's best to under expose in the initial shot. I like the scene, the sky, and the composition.
