Nice low angle, but the bird looks very green to me. Hopefully others will chime in on this, but I think you'll need to revisit the white balance. I also think the crop is too loose, especially above the bird. Some more DOF would had helped keep more of the subject in focus.

Ditto Dorian's comments here, but I like it overall.

Yes I agree the white balance is not prime here. Nice texture n the water surface. What is in the gull's bill?

Hi Volkan .... nice low angle and the subject well isolated .
Like the circle of movement in the water around the bird .
Personally I think both versions are not " right " in terms of white balance . Another issue is that you have overexposed the shot ...resulting in pink color in the highlights ( at least in the OP ) . There is no way to bring such detail back .... so not worth to invest time for processing .

Hi Volkan, to me the RP is still not right, it still carrying a greenish cast in the greys. The first element you must do when importing you raw file into any raw converter is correct the WB, I think you are using the wrong tool. I would look to a 16x10 crop and have the subject more to the right of frame.

Steve and Andreas, thank you. Another presentation prepared by being more faithful to the colors :)

Much better Volkan, and yes, you can move this along by using additional adjustments like HSL (Global adj), Colour Balance, Saturation or even Selective Colour (selective adj via layers & masks) just to boost things even more.
Cheers
