Great Spotted Woodpecker

[Andreas Liedmann]

Hi folks ... this image of the GSP was captured at the same location as the two previous postings
Was not really expecting him to land right in front of me , hence the tight frame with the long glass .
Had to extend canvas on top of the frame ... to give hi a bit of room , albeit I would have liked a looser comp
I do like the snow and the falling of it , some might remove the flakes ... I think they should stay

F 6,3 ; Iso 20.000 ; 1/1250 sec

Processed with ACR and PSCC 2024 ; clean up in snow and extend the canvas at the top

Thanks for looking and commenting to my previous postings

Cheers Andreas

SUper shot, agreed a little tight in the frame but I like the pose on the log and I agree the snow adds to the ambience.

Very nice Andreas. All looks good here. Great control on the blacks/whites and the reds give a nice wee colour boost. Lovely pose and HA. Good looking perch and the snow is the icing on the cake. :S3: I can't get near my set up..Too much snow.
