Bonjour Absed,
le rouge de ce cardinal est impressionnant, la composition centrale marche bien dans ce cas ci, j'aime bien la pose de l'oiseau qui regarde l'objectif
bien fait et bien vu,
amicalement,
Pat

Oh my goodness.. You certainly have a winner there Asbed. the tree, foreground and ground are all blended together as if you were a Master Chef of photography. And the bird is as the icing on the cake! A beautiful aviary species in its own environment which I shall add to that theme. It is truly wonderful and I am so happy you didn't throw this one away! Passionné est cette couleur rouge. And you share by the Passionné or your images!

Hello Asbed,
Beautiful composition with good exposure, but the focus seems a little soft. But the image is definately worth posting, thanks for sharing.

Hi Asbed,
this is a nice photo of this cardinal with great looking colour and a good point of view and like Rick says soft on the focus,but I think that is for two reasons:Resize degradation for the upload to TN and sharpening the Image too much or after you did the resize.I like this image and thank you for sharing it and not trashing it.

I like it. :) I'm glad you kept it.
Great color! And a good illustration of habitat.
I love that our friend here has his crest up. Senor Rojo, my model, refuses to raise his crest for me. ha ha

Bonjour Asbed,
I know how you feel about not liking a photo and after a while you feel it is not so bad after all!
What is so attractive about his is the strong contrast between the red of the Cardinal and brown colours of the leaves on the ground and the image is pretty sharp, the central composition working well here.
Well done and TFS!
Amicalement,
Ivan

Hi Asbed,

I share your philosophy on not keeping images that I don't like or I don't think work, although I tend to delete immediately, But I'l glad you didn't delete this one immediately and decided to post it. The really nice thing about the posting is that it shows the bird as you saw it in it's natural environment. It's good sometimes to see pictures of birds that aren't tightly cropped. Pictures of birds with an indication of the environmet in whihch they exist often tell the most interesting stories.

Kind regards,

Mike

Giving your all into the shot, that is what photography is about.

Bonjour Asbed, c'est très bien réussi et en effet on ne voit pas souvent le cardinal se promener au sol. Bon piqué, belles couleurs et beaux détails !

Salut Asbed!
Une superbe photo!!! Fantastique ambiance automnale avec ces feuilles toutes autour de ce Cardinal. Je n'en ai encore jamais vu «en vrai»... alors je t'envie eu peu et je te félicite pour nous l'avoir partagé... Le rouge de son plumage ressort magnifiquement dans cette photo... BRAVO et merci,

Claude

Hello Asbed

A striking image of this cardinal.
The colours are very good.The focus is well done with good detail.
You have managed very good eye contact.
I think the green of the grass has added a nice accent to the shot.
TFS

Salut Asbed,
Tous les oiseaux ont été photographié des milliers de fois aussi si on fait de la photo pour la course on est tous perdant, il y a toujours une photo mieux que la nôtre. Pour moi la photo n'est pas d'avoir la meilleur photo mais une occasions de contact avec la nature et je crois que c'est ce qu'il t'est arrivé quand tu as vu ce cardinal. L'adrénaline as du surement monté, c'est ce que tu nous fait partager dans cette photo.
à la prochaine

Hello Asbed,

What is so attractive about his is the strong contrast between the red of the Cardinal and brown colours of the leaves, exactly is this bird completely camouflage with the leaves.

Best regards,
John.

Salut Asbed,
Ils sont vraiment beaux à voir dans un paysage, de petits points rouge que l'on voit de loin. C'est sur que la photo est un peu éloignée mais je comprends les contraintes. J'aime bien ces couleurs automnales qui contrastent bien avec ce bel oiseau. À la prochaine,
Claudine
