Pearled Treerunner (Peru)

[Glenn Bartley]

this has to be one of the most beautiful members of the Furnariidae family. I just love the beautiful breast feathers on this species.

Cheers!

I see you are working very hard Glenn.

Very well done with the high ISO and 7D. Good for you. Lovely and unique bird. Too bad about those few protruding branches but I suspect you this is a pretty clear shot of this bird. Nicely done.

Very Beautiful indeed. Might tone down the OOF branch as it distracts from a very fine image.

A very nice habitat image but the bird looks quite soft to me lacking critical details, maybe due to low shutter speed or too much noise reduction...nevertheless an interesting specie we don't see often. TFS

I'm not sure why but my posts always seem softer on this site than on other forums. Something in the way they are "crunched" for this site maybe.

maybe it get's compressed when you upload to BPN server? something worth checking as these shots are really nice and deserve the best presentation....
