I like you composition and the pose of the squirrel. Its a shame that the image is quite 'noisy' with lots of purple pixels especially in the background, also it seems a bit oversharpened. The colours arent very appealing either, but maybe if you converted it to black and white it might appear a but easier on the eye! Good luck in future challanges!

Don't know what went wrong here - but you've ruined your picture in postprocessing it seems.

I am sure you might be getting lot of comments on post processing. I don't want to repeat that. Best of luck..

Pose is nice; don't care for the grain so much.

This pose is very cute. I think the image would be better if it was not sharpened this much.

You had a great shot, nice composition and interesting behavior, but you ruined it with postprocessing. (I hope that you started with a good image, it would be worth posting your original in a thread after the challenge and asking for suggestions on how to process it better).
Oversharpening is evident, and serves no purpose - does not enhance the photo at all.

Seems oversaturated and a bit soft in focus. Somewhat grainy.

Nice, I would have liked to see more dynamic range.

I suspect that you're probably not very happy with the score on this one, since most voters will be looking for a person in a portrait challenge. You CAN get away with a pet, but only with an exceptional expression and/or lighting. This, I'm afraid, has neither although the focus and composition are pretty good.
