Dang, this is gorgeous! Beautiful colors, detail, and a quizzical look on your model helps, too. And I just noticed the color and angle go nicely with your fish. :-)

The colors in this image are wonderful. The gradient of the background fits this almost perfectly. A very crisp photo. The composition isn't really doing it for me though.

Beautiful colors, interesting subject. The branch is the perfect angle to make this more visually interesting. The background colors, unfortunately, do not help the subject stand out. Perhaps if they had been adjusted to a slightly more contrasted color, the bird would have "popped" more.
