Wonderful shot, great color and wonderful detail. The red against the dark green foliage really makes your subject stand out.

Your manipulation of the subject left an outline around it. Don't know why that would happen however. Could be over saturated or something.

I absolutely love this shot. I'm about half way through and this is my favorite so far. I love the colours. My only issue is that I can tell you've cut around the bird in a few places to blurr the background. If not, it looks like your camera may have some strange halo. You may want to try multiple layers - cutting the bird in different ways - and then having each layer have a lower opacity. It takes a bit more time, but you may find it worthwhile. Overall though, i LOVE this shot. I'm giving it a high score.
