Nice one and I like the look back pose, Xin Chen!

I'm tempted to reduced the dead space just below the puffin's feet. Would also boost the contrast using levels/curves adjustments. Furthermore, some usm would make this fine shot really pops ...

I agree with everything KK said. I'd also boost the saturation a bit. I like the pose and the setting. Nice shot.

Hi,

love it; wonder if a little pull-down in the mid section in curves would help this out. Agree about a little off the bottom.

I agree with the others about the contrast, color and crop. You have a fine image that just needs a little tweaking. I really like the little flowers and the look back pose.
