Squirrel

Shot one using the 70-300VR and applied some PP:

I'm not sure why but there is a disturbing halo completely around the squirrel. I occasionally get that when I try to separate the subject from the background for whatever reason. Or maybe it's just the light. It looks odd though.

I think that might be due to irregular transmission of light through the hairs of the subject

Yes, i too see the halo and i think it came the way explained; the only distraction is the purple patch at the top right corner, that not falling in the color scheme in rest part;
I liked the image very much for the rest of reasons

Maybe there's a halo because it was sharpened?I do like the photo regardless.
