    Smoking nice frame Sasan. Love the pose and the ruffled feathers. I would reduce the yellows as the background looks over saturated to me as well as the yellows of the cere and feet.

    Really sweet frame Sasan. The layered/fluffed feathers are really beautiful. Agree you could turn the yellow down a bit. But not much. I like the pop!

    A beautiful image, I would suggest contrast is just a tad high and I would check saturation/luminosity at raw stage, there is slight clipping, but a very impressive image.
