Hi Tomasz, love the light and IQ in this, and you have captured a great pose too. Well exposed on the Woodpecker, and overall nice and sharp. I do like the show of lichen on the tree trunk. Comp wise, coming in from the left to eliminate the small part of BG would improve the overall image.

Nice frame with good detail.

Nice work Tomasz. We don't have woodpeckers in Australia so they are real novelty birds for me. Detail is extremely good on this and I love the colours. I feel the tones in the highlights are just a touch strong/bright for me though. Composition works well for me. Thanks for sharing your woodpecker!

A beauty! Great colours, well-balanced composition, and details throughout. There is a small blotch between the bird's upper back and right edge that I would smooth out, just to make the BG there cleaner. All else is super. Very nice.

Thanks guys.

Loved image overall and the crop specifically. Well done Tomasz
