This is a great cardinal portrait. The feathers are nice and sharp and the red color stands out well. I especially like how you can see the brown in his eye.

Very good entry for the contest. Lovely portrait of this beautiful Cardinal with the seed clutched in his beak. I like the angle you used for this with the soft green background contrasting well. Very good lighting and focus showing excellent detail. Good luck in the contest. Suzanne
