A very elegant pose from the Puffin, Basri, and that gray bg is perfect. Excellent image.

Nice detail and great background color for this bird Basri. I would be tempted to add a few points from the vibrancy slider to boost the colors just a tad.

Good pose, good detail and a nice neutral BG. I agree with Chuck—a little more vibrancy would help cure the flatness of this image.

Really digging this one Basri. My first thought was...needs a bit more vibrance and saturation...BUT after viewing the large image...I love it the way you processed it. The gray BG really lends to the overcast feel of this and I like how this is soft to the eye to view. I think it sets a really powerful mood to this image and would leave it as is. Really nice work.
