Love this photo! Great focus and clarity. Wonderful light accenting the cardinal's feathers and beak. Great job thanks for sharing.

This is a great close-up shot of the bird. I like the catch light in the eye. Good texture in the feathers. Good composition, focus, detail and dof. Well done. Good luck in the contest.

Very nice close up to this cardinal. The pupil with the light reflection is inspiring. The frozen pose is a wonderful capture coupled with the messy beak a natural and enchanting shot.

Comment from Intrepid


This is a beautiful close up shot of a male cardinal. The color red is deeply saturated. The focus is sharp, as always. The seeds in the beak add an element of interest to the picture.

I love the title! Excellent capture. I don't think I've ever seen a close up of a bird eating. Lots of clear details here - especially with the beak. this should be in nat'l geographic.
