No bears this time but a wonderful coloured Woodpecker. I shot this one near the wildlife center.

iso 200 1/200 sec. F5.6 Full Frame

the exposure and detail of the bird are perfect Edwin, really nice. I'd prefer a bit more room, particularly at the top of the image.

Thanks Matt,

I agree about the room but this one is full frame. I can add some canvas but I'm not a big fan of doing that kind of processing.

Very nice shot but full frame or not it is simply too large in the frame for my likings.

Hi Edwin

Maybe a little tighter in the frame than I normally prefer, but it works OK for me. I like the pose and viewing angle!

fantastic detail, but for me he is a little too high in the frame. Nice pose

Hello Edwin.

Cracking picture of the bird with nice light and detail.

I would add a small amount of canvas to the top if this was mine, just to give the bird a bit more breathing space.

Very nice POF and exposure/detail are tip top.

I also agree about having more room up-top

Agree about the room at the top, but this is just a stunning GSW shot
