Great picture, I feel it is a little too central. maybe crop tighter on the right hand side ?

| I too believe it may look better cropped closer to the head and tighter to either side. Which would look better I'm not sure. |

Yes, and I agree, either crop the right hand side or crop it very closely around the eagle so that it dominates the frame. There are some many great details on a close-up eagle that you really dont want it to be competing with a background. Having a non-central fairly wide shot isnt a bad thing, but when you just have a standard head shot it's usually better to get in close.

Yes, what's been said before, and also crop it to a portrait orientation, it would work better that way IMO.
That's pretty much in agreement with moodville that a very close crop would be best to accentuate the detail.

How's this look? Cropped and added border.

I would drop the border and maybe play with some of the color a tad. Bring a more vivid yellow to the beak without making it looked dyed. That's just my taste though.

The crop is much better as you can see the details in his/her feathers and eyes. The border is a personal thing so go with what you like. The image seems a little soft probably due to the significant crop. Did you USM it at all? I think the muted colors arent bad but you could always try boosting the saturation and even turning it black and white and then deciding which one you prefer.

| IMO looks much better cropped, no longer has the distracting background. I don't use PS or other top suites so can't really comment on these, but could do with being bit more colour to beak. Would like to see end result. |

Yep, you should crop it. The cropped version is much better, IMHO.
