    Terrific details and exposure on the reds. Nice texture of the snow. Well done. If mine, I'd have a little more room behind the bird.

    :)

    Stunning reds; agree needs a little canvas on the right, the snow looks a bit "hot" but the bird is great!

    Thanks for the tips. I have added some more head room and pulled back some exposure.

    Nice details. Sharp feathers. Good pose and and a catchlight to boot.

    Works for me.

    I only wish my cardinals would come close enough so I could get this type of image.

    Hi Jeff. I liked the OP just fine, but I was going to suggest a bit more head room. This repost takes it over the top!

    Really rich reds; reds really rich. The repost is preferable because one feels lower in relation to the bird. Assuming it were possible, I'd have hit the dirt (or in this case, snow) and tried for the low angle.
