Description

Shot some in the backyard set up yesterday.
I like female cardinals as much as the males so was glad to get the top shot yesterday.

Snow and frigid temps are coming here soon so I may have some snow shots to share if I can stand the low temps.

Specific Feedback

Any comments appreciated. The dark BG is natural. I took these shots when the sun was first hitting the set up.

Technical Details

Canon R7, Sigma 150-600 Contemporary, tripod
ISO 400, f10, 1/800s

Delightful series of birds on this cold winters day, Allen. Love how the dark background highlights the birds so well. Nicely done!

All nice images, Allen. You’re probably not used to low temps, so bundle up well. If they’re available, handwarmers inside the back of the glove help a lot.

I’m jealous if this is in your backyard! Lovely colours and detail, great job.

I like all of these, and I think the dark background really makes the birds “pop.”

All beautiful shots. I think the dark background works especially well to show off the cardinal.
