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. ;)


I think it's really good. The soft background and vignette really help set off the detail of the cardinal.

Just a super shot Stephie. Lots of good ideas from others too. I guess it comes down to whether you want a shot of a cardinal in the winter (more cropping) or a shot of a beautiful winter scene with the cardinal in it. I like it best as the full shot with Tom's idea of a tiny bit of cropping. The out-of-focus green really makes the photo pop.

If I was going to change anything, it would be to cut back on the white vignetting. A wise person here on UHH recently said their guideline for vignetting is to do just enough that it is hardly noticeable. That's the mental guide I use when using the Lightroom slider.

I'd hang it in my office and make Christmas cards for next year too.

Thank you Greg for your insight. I will try what both you & Tom are saying..... ;) we'll see if that makes it better :D
