    Cardinal with water droplet. There is a little motion blur in tail due to quick drinking action.

    Gary, a really low angle here - great, and I like the drinking pose. The reds are very striking, and I feel you have brought them out very well. The single droplet puts this up a notch. An opportunity well used.

    You have controlled the reds superbly despite the harsh light. The water droplet with the reflection is what makes this shot special. Great low angle as well. I wish there was a bit more room all around for a more traditional crop,

    Thanks for your comments. Gail, I have more room all around for a looser crop but I went tighter to show more detail here.
