    Default May Theme - Nuthatch

    I normally post in the eager to learn forum, but thought I would give this one a shot in the May theme...

    7D, 600MM, ISO 800 F5.0 @ 1/3200

    I had been doing a little shooting in overcast conditions. The sun popped out just as I noticed this guy so I took the shot without changing ISO.

    The white OOF background is a picket fence, the tan is mulch.

    Processed in Lightroom with some selective + exposure via the adjustment brush to even out some blotchiness in the white background. Any C&C welcome...

    cracking pose, and I like the composition. You could get away with more NR on the OOF mulch if you wanted.

    Yes to more NR. Otherwise this is a fine image. Love the pose and the comp. The perch is just enough for the subject.

    Perfect Nuthatch pose, nice detail. Ditto the NR. Looks just a tad oversharpened on my screen.

    Thanks for the comments. I agree with the NR. I overlooked that area.

    NR applied to bottom OOF mulch area...
