He's a beauty! Nice capture.

Personal preferences ... I would crop some off the bottom and right. The subject also seems a bit lost against the bright background. I would mask off the subject and then brighten it and darken the background with separate adjustment layers.

I disagree about the crop, I like the wider look of it. The image is a bit noisy and could use a bit of cleaning up. Otherwise great shot.

If you don't mind editing and reposting of your images you can turn on the flag in your profile that says it's OK.;)
