Aug 8, 2009		     perfect fit theme, but quality....probably hard overprocessed

Aug 7, 2009		     Because of the theme I had to crop the pic too much. Then I had to deal with the noise and missed details of the fur. Sharpening didnīt help much.
Tried also jpeg-artifact removal, but it didnīt help here.

Aug 6, 2009		     Similar to another image in the challenge but lacking a similar sharpness and impact. Well on theme for the challenge and certainly an original and surprising capture.

Aug 6, 2009		     I like the shot and I can imagine the joy of being out in the forest with this lovely animal. Also it is a perfect fit for the theme.

Technically though you have pushed the shot a little far. Unless I am mistaken there are numerous sharpening artefacts in the fur, particularly noticeable underneath. Also there is a blurring that I suspect is NR related. I am not normally a pixel peeper, but in this shot those issues intruded.
