Nice and crisp digital, well composed, the dark band from the out of focus tree distracts slightly but not overly offensive.

Lovely cardinal. Agree about the background being a bit noisy. There is also a slight green cast, but I critiqued a photo earlier and said the same thing, so it's very likely my monitor. Good feather detail. Very sweet little bird..

Oh, hard to ignore, wonderful comp with the diagonal, nice use of DOF makes for a nondescript background. The color seems right on, nice detail. Too bad the female cardinals get ignored a little, as opposed to their more colorful male counterparts. Ladies deserve equal time, LOL, well done. Best regards, Scott

Nice little bird. Great sharpness and composition. I like the contrast of the orange bill. The background is a bit too unquiet, but overall a nice picture. Thanks for sharing it with us.
