Image of this Velvet Fronted Nuthatch was created in the month of Feb, 2013.
Cropped for composition and sharpened. I am aware, that it is not perfect a picture in terms lights, perch etc,
however I like the true velvety plumage in this light, otherwise it looks blue in color. Applied NR in Neat image to JPG image.
I hope you will like it.
Nice closeup of this bird , its very difficult to get any near to this one
the details look nice and the head turn is good, the small fan of the tail is nice to view
Hi Satish, a species I havent seen either. What awesome colour this fellow has, and his head turn shows the yellow against the purple nicely. I feel you have comped this best as is.
This is my first time to see this bird, velvety it is! I really like the perspective of this shot. It looks like you were shooting from above the bird.
Nicely handled exposure with a tricky lighting scenario. Still, some flash work to balance the ambient light a bit would have been nice here. Gorgeous bird. First time I've ever seen one.
Wow, an all decked-out nuthatch! Nice pose and I like the comp too. Awesome colours but IQ on the details seems degraded a bit as KD points out, and there is odd processing stuff going on in upper right corner and along the contour of the tail. Hoping to see more form this beautiful species!
