Welcome to DPC from the Critique Club, and your first submission to challenges. I have a couple of suggestions for you on your image that might help you with future challenges. First off your subject seems a bit soft then sharpened up a bit, you have lost detail in the birds feathers. I'd suggest with the lens your using to stop it down a bit for a sharper image and bump the ISO up a bit to keep your shutter speed. You also appear to have some CA in the high contrast area in the lower left. Since this was advanced editing that could have been fixed in processing. Your placement of the subject is pretty good. Good luck in future challenges.
