Red Pens (Cedar Waxwing)

Beautifully done with an excellent handling of DOF. On a personal note, I like the room at top. I would crop some off the bottom, putting the bird a bit more off center and strengthening the subject. It's still a 7 in my book

What a fine tribute to such a magnificently plumed bird . . .  I really like the soft touch; it brings out the bird's delicate nature.

Congratulations on POTD. It's a beautiful image. The background rendered nicely and provides a perfect compliment to the Waxwing's colors. The details are crisp and the lighting is drop dead gorgeous. I like the overall simplicity of the image. Well done.
