love that little squirrel .. we dont have them in australia so he seems particularly exotic !! .. are they like pests where you live, a bit like rabbits here ?? ..
anyway . its a brilliant photograph and process ... love the more gritty look and the way you've given the squirrel a different hue from the background .. he really stands out ..
now i'll have to try your method of dodging and burning.. there are so many ways to do things in photoshop .. :)

Nice change in lighting. Great detail on the squirrel's fur and especially the tail. You GO boy!

Amazing work !
The most stunning here is that the image is very dynamic, the motion of one of the fawns is perceptible and the lighting provides also depth and strenght to the background.
Virtually nothing to improve here - if I'm really looking for a flaw, I can have a little regret for the cropped paws.

I thought I was test driving CS3, but the more I see on this side challenge, the more I realized I have just fond out where to put the keys to start it up. Nice work!

I love your choice of background color, and what a fantastic job you did of selecting the bugs! The reflection is the icing on the cake, this is wonderful!
