Well I liked the pose...

Nice pose and colors. BG is nice too although I'd clone out the branch in the UL corner. Focus seems off and more on the knee/log/foot. Did he refuse to stand still and pose for you?

The pose indeed is great. A pity you did not manage a sharp shot. In this case you could have opened up the lens to gain SS...

I too like the pose, but agree about the focus being off. The bright spots in the background are distracting and you might try to tone those down. The image would be better with front lighting rather than the side lighting as presented.

Very appealing. Pose great. Color outstanding. I agree on the other points covered above. It might be possible to do selective sharpening on the chipmunk to give more apparent focus. If you have PK Sharpener, it has a depth-of-field brush that if used judiciously can help somewhat. Obviously, it doesn't compensate entirely for soft focus.
