    Default Male cardinal

    Hi everybody,
    My name is Shahin Abasov and this is my first post. I like wildlife and landscape photography.
    I took this picture in Houston.

    Welcome to BPN Shahin. It would help if you post your camera settings along with your image to aid in the critique. I like the raised crest, different pose and clean BG. The bird is a little tight top and bottom in the frame and you need to run a little noise reduction in the BG. If this was a setup a nicer perch would look better. Look forward to seeing more.

    Welcome Shahin. Jim is very smart. He stole my critique :). A vertical capture here would have eliminated several of the problems he noted.

    Was this at a feeder set-up?
