    I like the pose and eye contact and would put the bird further to the right in the frame as it is a bit centered as presented. If it is not a heavy crop, I might sharpen the body a little.

    Hi Asif Agree with comments by Axel and would also suggest to brighten a bit more From the info seems the light was harsh but bird does not look that way !!! ... love the raised crest !!!

    What a fascinating bird … would agree on trying to crop so that the bird is more on the right hand side. At first glance I thought the bird could do with brightening and sharpening a bit to lift it more.
