Hi Oscar,
This is a pretty lady. I would like to see the background much lighter. Your lady's eye is too dark and she needs more room on top of the frame. Her eye is too dark, needs to be lightened...:D
Nice portrait Oscar. I agree with Gus it appears very dark on my monitor.

nice capture, oscar!! i worked on it a little for ya. same as in lance's post, i just selected the bird itself and lightened it. added just a tad bit of USM to the entire image. there seems to be a halo around the bird, but it was there from the start. i like the muted dark bg.
if you watch your histogram, you can tell that the image was underexposed. try to get some more data to the right side of the chart without it climbing the far right wall. the head angle could be a bit better too. other than that, i like it!!
have a nice day!!
I like the crop, head position and sharpness Oscar. Do think the original was underexposed. Harold did a good job but you can see the noise starting to creep in !!! Always trust the histogram !!!
