    decent idea, the title goes well with it ... but :
    You cropped off the nose,the ear and the cheek, not a good idea generally speaking
    Both the blue background and the blue tint also don't do it for me.

    I'd try exploring a few different angles, more to the side or perhaps from the top.

    Another possible submission although I believe the compo is too static.

    Not sure about the second one but better job on the first one, the angle is now good, you still cut the poor squirell's(?) head off. And i'm still not crazy about the background.

    Oh and also, decrease your aperture (increase the f number), so that most of the head is in focus, or at least the eyes are

    I'd also recomend that he eye be in focus rather than the nose.

    I guess it's the graphic designer in me. I'm always tryig to make dynamic compostions by angling and cropping. I agree that the pic is better with the ear in the shot and that the eye should be in focus but I don't mind the very top of his head being cropped.
