Nice shot Russ! Strong colours you've captured here; the rooster really seems to rule the roost though ;)

There are a few things I'd alter if it were mine, firstly I'd like to see more seperation in intensity between the rooster and the background; as it stands he blends in a bit too much I think. There's also a bit of barrel distortion, and I'm not 100% sure about the rotation either.

To that end; I used ShiftN to correct the verticals/rotation slightly, then used Photoshop/Filters/Distort/LensCorrection to fix the slight barrel distortion. Copied the rooster onto a new layer, then used the Burn tool to darken the background and make him stand out a little more.
