ctnfeathers, Welcome
Different is one thing, different and well done is another. Showing personality is difficult, and with animals, tough. You got both things in this shot, and it is as good technically as one might want. The forehead and cheek have a little loss of detail in the feathers from either overexposure or oversaturation. So? You got the important part, the rest is adjustable. You can do this again with an eye towards the technical and have a winner in anyone's judgement.
I was given a baby cockatiel to handfeed in '98, and saw that personality thing up close. They are great models; hope to see more.
