 I briefly had a version this on my profile page before I decided to enter it into this challenge and it received 8 views and 1 comment. I had planned to enter a completely different image but was unable to get the shot done on time. I looked through the images I had taken this week to find one that fitted the challenge - this one was too good a match to ignore.

Edit-wise, a bit of hue change from orange to red; raised black point, some contrast and sharpening manipulation and a crop.

Red Rooster alright. Looks very scary when you see it up close like this. Good capture nevertheless! 7
