Great focus and composition, you can see every individual feather. I would of cloned the white reflection spot in the eye as it is alittle distracting. Love that the cardinal has a seed in its beak. Great photo.

WOW! Talk about a close-up! The feathers on the cardinal's face look like tiny porcupine quills. This is wonderfully crisp and the lighting lights up the bird's face beautifully. The ring around the eye is pretty impressive too.

I have no sixes but I'm rating this as a cyber 10!

Absolutely Awesome!
I have the feeling yourgoing to do very well in the contest. GOOD LUCK! :o) Helvi

Wow that is the first macro I have seen of a bird. Great work. That combination seem to be great for bird photos I think Willie LOL has the same setup. I will have to give you a cyber 6 because it says I have already given you too many. Dave
