Classic Winter Cardinal shot. Was hoping the snow would stick here today but it was gone as soon as it hit the ground so no chance of an image like this

I like the snowy setting and you have enough of a view + light in the bird's right eye for it to work for me. I'm a little on the fence about the overall comp but think it works well enough.

Nice cardinal image - nothing like a red cardinal with snow.
I Like the head-on pose and don't mind the oof areas.
Perhaps a little tight in the frame..

Other than being a little tight, a nice head on portrait of the cardinal.

Nice shot of a beautiful specimen with a long crest. A little more room all around would improve this image.

Great image, Douglas. Beautiful detail and perfect exposure. I love the way the Y branch frames the cardinal.
