Wonderful colour and detail! These are such lovely birds... I'll have to get to the Royal Bottanical Gardens!

You managed perfect depth of focus in this shot. Color and sharpness are good. I wish we had these birds where I live. They would certainly brighten up a dull winter day.

Thanks for sharing

Hello Obe,
This is my preferred bird! I love red Cardinals as they are so beautiful and they have the more beautiful way to sing especially in spring and summer as I can hear them for morning to night. In winter time, I see them but I don't hear them really as they are more discreet.

This is a very beautiful capture with excellent details and nice POV. My only nit is that I would have left more space right as he seems a little tight in the frame :-) He looks like he is injured on the chest or something like that. I love this little light in his eye too. Well done! Thanks,
Claudine

Hi Obe

Great image. Perfect catchlight, great pose, lovely colours. Just needs more space in front of the Cardinal. TFS. :-)
