I think Cardinals are sometimes overlooked.  They're a very pretty bird.

Agreed...the tints and color graduations of the female are very pleasing...as is your image. Like the composition, BG, everything about it.
Thank You

I like cardinals as well, especially females. I cant manage to get such a nice image though. Congrats!

Best,

Matt

Nice clean background, great pose. I would try a vertical (8x10) as well.

Beautiful image Gene. Love the crest up and subtle colours. Great DOF and POV too!

Nice light and pose here. My eye wishes for a less square and less centered vertical crop
