I posted a variant of this beautiful lady a couple of months ago. I have to admit, though I see many Cardinals daily I'm always smitten when one strikes a pose-

Nice portrait, MedicineMan! Sometimes I think too much bright background detracts from an image but in this case, I think it works well.

Thanks for posting.

A neat shot, Robert. Looks like she recently molted.

Excellent details in this one, Robert - well captured! What lens did you use on this one? It looks more like a prime rather than a zoom lens to me.

Robert, yes you have excellent detail on the body of the bird. Your NR on the BG is great.

IMO, very slight NR could have been used on the body of the bird. Sharpening in the presents of noise magnifies the noise.

Thanks everyone.
Ted, thanks and noted on the noise reduction. To the best of my memory NR was
applied only to background and LR's default NR to the bird.
Joshua I used the EOS 400DOii + 2.0TCiii . Here is the EXIF from
