Mark, I like the photo except for the lighting on the raccoon. My first intuition was fill flash would have helped a bit, but the branches in front of the raccoon may have interfered with that.

Lanier, I agree with you. Those branches were making me crazy. I just couldn't get a clean shot. I also think a warming filter might have been nice here to warm the whole shot up a bit. maybe I'll fool with it a bit in photoshop and see what I can produce. Thanks for your thoughts.
