You did a fine job with your night prowler, the pesky raccoon! The raccoons pose, his expression and all the details of his fir are great. Beautiful job on the highlights too. Best of luck in the contest.
I have but one suggestion- take another pic and fill the shot with your beautiful painting.

I took your advice and hopefully this picture does the painting justice. Thank you

A good looking nature image posted here! Your fine and classical composition offers us an enjoyable view of that exploring animal and its location. What is the animal?
Well painted and good luck!
