the cardinal is beautiful and i really like the third shot too... you hardly ever see anyone take that perspective with flower shots. i like the colorful, robust flowers in the background and the indication those give of what the subject of your shot once was. well done

Hi Lori! the Cardinal is the best in this set! Love the pose; you couldn't have captured him any better. That's a deffinate wall hanger! Very nice set of pictures I love panzy's as well.
Thanks for Sharing these
Michael.
