Every hair is beautifully detailed, as is the seed she is cracking. Ofcouse the twinkle in her eye is well captured, and the close crop, is perfect. Donkeyoatey

Twinkle in her eye, food in the belly. Very sharp photo, well done. Love the detail, brilliance, and framing.

Neat it is. The pupil and reflection are amazing. The hair like strands look surreal as well. A cover shot for any cardinal book or magazine. Sorry no 6's left. NICE WORK

Cracking seeds has always been my favorite past time and it's what's inside that counts. I know what I like and I know what I don't like and I really like this art, Charlie Nitro

How very nice. I have reviewed one of your other cardinal shots, but you really came in close for this one. Very clear very fine focusing with excellent DOF. You got all the details on the bird and a nice smooth backround. Well done. The exposure and lighting is right on. The colors are rich and not over saturated. Your shooting angle is pretty level creating intimacy. The eye is very near the 1/3 node as is the sunflower seed. Lighting is probably overcast with no distict shadows. I don't have any prime ratings left but I would definately give it a strong 5.5.
