Nice image, David. The BG & perch are really good and the pose, lighting and focus look good.

Very nice David,

I wouldn't mind seeing the bird a bit more left in the frame. Eliminating one of the catch lights would be good too.

Excellent, I love the lighting; some of the image in shade and some in sunlight. Exposure nightmare, but you have a stunning image.

Someday, I'll get this close to a cardinal. This is great; I love the details and softer colors.
