nice capture, I think the focus could have been just a little deeper to have the head sharp too jmo

Nice shot. Would have liked to seen a sharper focus on the face.

Looks cold and snowy, although this nice colored bird doesn't seems to have any problems with it, looking at his face.

Greetings from the Critic Club

Well, there is certainly nothing wrong with this image from a technical point of view. Composition is great as well.

Clearly the primary reason for the low score is due to people not finding it to meet the challenge. I do think in a different challenge you would have had a much much higher score. I can see where you are going with this, but it is just a bit too out of the box.

This is adorable! I love photos of cardinals in the snow and I love that this one actually has snow on her head....great detail.

Back to vote, I gave this an 8.

I've been trying for months to get into birding, so I can truly appreciate this image. The bird itself is beautiful, the coloring is excellent and the pose of the bird is great. Add to this bird a snowfall and you have composed an image to be proud of. Hope this is going on a wall somewhere :) 9
