Very similar to the PP of IMG_7663.jpg, but the colors here were just a bit odd.
I ended up doing a slight CCW rotation, rebuild of blank canvas areas after the crop, then obviously a toned b&w conversion.

Might have helped to add:

Nice pose, but overall it's kinda' "flat". I applied a luminosity gradient to lighten the top a bit more from the upper left, erasing back in her arm in the lower left to bring it back. I applied an overall boost in saturation, contrast & brightness to pop it a bit more, added a warming tone to help the skin color, erasing her teeth back to no warming, then did a light vignette to focus the brightness on her. You know, the old 2min edit thing...

That's about $12,000 - 15,000 worth of Cockatoos here in the states.
Crazy to think they are wild there and are also protected by law, even though they can wipe out crops like locusts.

Truly beautiful - congrats on this exceptional piece of art.
Can't think of a single thing to improve it other than to add to my favs! (edit for spelling - duh)
