 Cormorant at the zoo. The eye was just captivating; I hope I did it justice.

Had the teleconverter attached for a focal length of 420mm.

PP - converted from RAW, rotated slightly, cropped, dodged and burnt the eye a little, increased saturation on the eye, added border, resized, sharpened, reduced noise in background
