    Hi Jaime, I like the marmot pose with the front foot lifted and the intent look on its face. I feel that the face could be selectively sharpened some more as it appears a little soft to me. Very nice rock the animal is sitting on with plenty of character.

    Hard to show the sharpness when you have to resize things smaller to post!

    That looks pretty sharp, maybe it was a lack of contrast but the initial posting looks slightly soft and while I realise the body has been thrown oof, there is an overall lack of punch on my monitor. I love that little mouth and view of the teeth you posted second.:)

    Nice Jaime! Where was this image made and what species is it? With the obvious detail in the, the OP should look sharper than it does. And I would disagree, it is not hard to show sharpness with the resizing required for BPN. The evidence is all the super-sharp images posted here.

    This image has a lot of potential and I think you could draw more out of it with some processing. Some dodging under the chin would brighten up that part of the image. Also there is a magenta cast on the image which you could remove. I use LAB colour to do this and adjust the A and B channels so that whitish highlights are 0,0. I did this and it worked well.
