I have posted similar previously but I have processed this one slightly differently.

John - I love this one. Such a cute pose with an excellent perch. Colors, tones and details all look good. Well done.

You beat me to it Jon, I must keep my power dry I guess during our calls .

Love the overall colour and the curvature of the tail contouring the body, cool ear tuffs too. For me it's a tad too central, a little less on the LHS if you have the space to the right?

Hyper 'picky' the perch needs a bit more sharpening, or inclusion within your masking as the head is sharp and in the same plane of focus, or you need to pull your AFMA forward, but doubt you need to?
