Standing Out
(01.30.05)

This was actually taken a few days ago... I tried a few things today but got nothing. The Cardinals around me seem to be well fed don't you think? Look at this plump little fellow and such a wiggly little creature. I have great respect for you birders who capture such sharp shots.

I plan to take a few days off to do some needed clean up and backup work on my computer. It is amazing the back log of images that I have amassed over these last few months. Need to bring it under control.

Nikon Coolpix 5700
1/331s f/7.4 at 61.5mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Great DOF and your Cardinal stands out nicely.

What a beautiful little creature.

Lovely saturation and composition... btw birds puff up their feathers to keep warm, but I agree they might be well fed as well!

Great color and contrast.

Robin, thank you! I removed the blurr I had applied via PS and I think it improves the image.

Great bird shot. He really stands out against the winter hues. I should probably do some clean up work myself.
Robin Reid31-Jan-2005 04:37
What a wonderful color.
Did you PS (blur) the background? It looks a bit funny.
Good luck cathing up

This is beautiful. I understand about the mass of images....I need to do the same. Good luck.

Think you did pretty darn good with this one LC. Love his red coat.
