@wud got me thinking about a business card, so here is my design.

Thoughts?

I like the pictures for sure. How about this for an idea, instead of having the harsh line delineating pic from text. What if you had the green background throughout and had your text in white? That way you could move more of the bird into the empty space between top and bottom text boxes. Or what about the green background dissolves into the white (more so in the middle empty space) so again you can move the bird further inwards to occupy the empty space.

I'm not a fan of text over a picture, but maybe a fade to white like PapaST's alternate suggestion. Black on white looks more professional to me and its easier to read without my reading glasses. White on green might be hard to scan if someone uses one of those OCR business card scanners. I like the look with the pictures, looks sharp. Maybe a more colorful parrot if you have one that 'pops'.

A business card should give the viewer an idea of the type of photography you specialize in. From your card, I would surmise you are a nature/animal photographer. If this is indeed correct, then your card is spot on. However, if you want people you meet to think you do more than animal photography, I would suggest redesigning the front of your card.
