Mr. Cardinal and the iPhone

Not my normal camera for birds (and it had to be significantly cropped), but he was in our alley when Sahraa and I were walking home from the park. He didn’t seem to care how close I got and was posing all over the tree for me.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly
unsharp.

Mistaken identity, posted earlier:

Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max
1/521s f/2.2 at 7.5mm iso20 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Nice setting for this well captured image Helen.

Good work. He certainly stands out from the background. I think urban birds are much more used to people.

Nothing wrong with cropping that is what the MP allow us to do at times Nice composition capture the Cardinal between those massive tree trunks. Nice catchlight and nice pose excellent iPhone accomplishment. Vote
