    Cardinal sillhouette

    This guy landed above me as I was doing gardening last night. So I laid on the ground turned and shot. There was a tiny ray of sunlight hitting him on the opposite side which you can see in his crown but otherwise I like how this turned out.

    Thanks Loupey. I knew I'd get you looking when I titled it silhouette =)
