Took this yesterday (Tues the 6th) I was trying to get both the male & female together & it just wasn't happening. (I was at work too, so I couldn't spend all day outside, not that I wanted to - too cold) :D
Please give me your thoughts & let me know what you think. (good or bad) Thanks. ;)

Female Cardinal

I like it! You captured this beautiful female nicely, the colors are natural, a beautiful composition with a pleasantly out of focus back ground. This would make a neat Christmas card.

I think this is very good...would also make a beautiful card or note cards!!...good job!

The subject is in focus. Very crisp and clear.
Love the soft back ground.

This is very nice and looks even better on the down load.
Thanks for sharing. I'll stay warm in southern California
and enjoy your work in the snow.

This truly would make a wonderful card as already stated.

Thank you so much for the compliment! Yeah, rub it in, with that warm weather ;) - wish I lived in a warmer part of the USA - it is pretty here in WV, but too cold for me. :D

I lived in Fairmont WV for 2 years in the late 70's.
I called it pot hole city. It was very beautiful and I
would love to take a photography trip there.

I have a thing for covered bridges and there are
some there. I would love to get some snow shots
with them. Spring would be great too.

An impressive and beautiful image Steph. I like it!

It's really beautiful. What would it look like if you cropped it just past the twigs in order to get a closer shot of the bird?

There's nothing more beautiful in the winter than seeing a cardinal in the snow!
Great shot, Steph and it would make a beautiful card!
:-D
