Comment by CNovack:
Although the subject is not in tack sharp detail the softness of the cardinal almost lends itself to soft brush strokes of a paintbrush. It also helps convey the feel of touch - that the feathers of this bird are silky soft. I love the bold soft reds that color the otherwise muted scene. It is the splash of red that automatically draws our eye. My only critique is that I wish that it was a tad brighter overall so that the back half of the bird is not so dark compared to the sunlight front.

I wouldn't have guessed this was an African Violet. Good DOF and I like those saturated colors.
