Female Cardinal 23 TC BPP Kathleen Wheeldon Nature Bronze
J3 The bird is well captured with good eye detail. Framing the bird with green tree twigs draws the attention to the nature subject but is more a pictorial treatment, and is not consistent with nature photography where it is desirable to show the whole bird. The 2 blurry twigs in front of the subject need to be sharper as they are very eye catching .. could tone them down a little. Darker background is well done.
