I'm not sure if this qualifies for "last light" even though it was - because I used fill flash. Anyway, it's a Pileated Woodpecker that has almost fledged. A second bird is visible in the nest. The birds seemed quite unfazed either by myself, or by the loud and intrusive road works, with heavy equipment, going on just a few metres away.
i like the pose of the bird waiting for some food. the exposure looks good too. is this a large crop? seems to have lost a little detail in the bird and there is some noise in the bg. might desat the reds a little too. i like the compo.
Hi Richard,
I like the composition and capture...agree with our resident Doctor on the red channel being a tad over saturated, and a little noise reduction in the background...looking forward to your next one...:cool:
Basicly what has been said above Richard with one more nitpick , think that if your up to it you could remove the OOF branch but its just a matter of taste. Well Captured
Agree with all that's been said above. You captured a good moment. The inside of the nest seems lit up. Can you get the lens more "eye level' with the nest next time?
Where's my supper?
