    Hi Ryan, It may be that I am technically challenged but I am not seeing an image. There is a message that the image is currently unavailable. The thumbnail looks interesting.

    Hi Ryan, I like the calling pose and eye contact. The bird appears sharp with good details. I like the background as I think it helps display the bird. The reds are a little hot so you may want to try toning them down. I apologize if you're already aware of the threads below in the Tutorial and How-To Repository but if not you may find them useful.
    If your master file doesn't have hot reds then it am be a conversion issue when converting to sRBG.

    Interesting comp. I'm personally wanting to see the complete bird though, or perhaps anchered to the corner would be better. It is also seemingly angled slightly away. Nice looking eye, clear and sharp.
