Great focus on this Willie, I can even see the dandruff in its feathers, I do not know how you got so close, Very good shot.

She does not look too happy. Eye is clear but too much fuzzy everywhere else. I know you want the focus on the eye. I like the reflection of the sun on the eye. good title. Thanks for sharing.

Wow! This is an amazing close up of a cardinal's eye! At first glance I couldn't tell what kind of animal it was because the feathers look so thick close up! Nice work!

Comments:You need to get that f-stop higher, I assume your using a flash and that your within a couple of feet. I would crank that f-stop up until you start losing the light. The flash should allow you to keep the same shutter speed or a tad slower. You will increase your DoF and the picture will be so much sharper.Dont get me wrong, this is a great shot and your DoF is dead on the eye. Its just so narrow.try it see what you think.

Thank you so very much! I have my settings all on automatic, I just change the shutter speed and everything adjusts to it. I was not aware the fstop would increase dof. I am tickled you have told me this. I will get my book out and study how to have control of the f stops I am so glad you mentioned this. I have had this problem for a while and thought it was something I wad to live with.

Oh my goodness that is an awesome photo. What an amazing close up shot- the detail is exceptional! So cool. You did a great job with this one- half a face is not something I would do, but neat still.
