Blackbird in the snow

Another from my sessions with these birds in the snow. I have tended to overlook common birds in the past and have few good images so this winter I set myself a target to increase my coverage of the common garden birds. taken from a lie down hide, 1Dmk111 500

Hi Paul
If I lie down these days I don't get up.!
Good exposure on this one. Like in the old days- black cat in a coalhouse !

Very effective Paul!

You treated this one nicely. Lovely image.

Beautiful bird captured brillant Paul,love the pose and the detail/exposure is stunning,mush tops it,very nice

Just lately I've done enough lying down in the snow to last me a lifetime Paul

Shot works very well for me too, though perhaps a tiny bit more room on the right might have been good.

Nice one Paul - very underrated subject photographed in a different style for sure..

Lovely composition, like it very much.

Hi Paul

I spent some time myself yesterday doing these in similar circumstances, nice portrait and I like the wing position. The blown snow is a tiny distraction for me though exposing correctly for the blackbird there is little else you could have done

Cheers

Andy

Hello Paul

Very nice, lovely series of images from your Garden birds.

Hi Paul, a very moody shot of the bird.

Great stuff, a very different pose and the low angle gives a nice effect

great pose and setting, low angle and snow on the beak both really add to the image too

Superb DOF Paul, and a nice image!
Regards,
Paul.

Hi Paul
