Adult female northern cardinal in the back yard. This is the first time I have actually seen the different colors on the back.

Nikon D200, AF-s 300 F4 at F4, ISO 320, 1/350

C & C welcomed and appreciated

Lindy, The image is sharp where it counts, around the head. A little more ISO to increase the f stop might have provided a little more DOF. Lovely image and I enjoy looking at her. Exposure looks good and the colors are nice.

Lindy, you have a nice pose and comp, but for me those bright oof branches are pretty distracting.
