A super looking bird in a great photo! You have done a great job with this photo of the young lady and this would make a great greeting card photo. Nice sharp features and great background also.

So rich in detail. So sharp, so nicely framed and so well done in every way. I can't think of anything negative about this beautiful photo.

Very pretty indeed! Love the rich tones, the tight framing as well as the to the side poise you've captured. Great depth of field that isolates, focal integrity as well as rich light!

WOW! Fantastic clarity in this shot!! I really appreciate the sharpness in this girl's eye and the shallow DoF that isn't SO shallow that all the feathers that we can see are blurred out. This is, in fact, complete, total, and perfect control of focal depth. I'm very impressed. I'm gonna take a shot in the dark and say that this is Willie (but if it's not, take that as a compliment!). Love all those details, and all the tiny lines throughout the breast and head area.. so much to explore! And the ideal exposure, with even light, really allows the viewers' eyes to do just that, without any distractions pulling them elsewhere. The bright-to-neutral colors stand out well against the solid green background, the blurring of the wing generates the depth smoothly, the bird is looking towards the open part of the frame, and the close-up nature generates the desired impact. A real winner! Additionally, if you look at it from an abstract point of view, I really like how the colors interact to take the eye around the triangular shape of the head. A superb photo, thanks for sharing and best of luck!

Great looking shot!. This is fine close up of the bird. Your framing, colours and the composition appear to be perfect and you have captured the startled look of cardinal's very well.
Good luck in the contest!

She is a pretty girl. Great composition. I really like her coloring. The red of her feathers are gorgeous. Great clarity. I like the simplicity of the background.
