Autumn Woodpecker
Taken at my feeding station where I have been spending most of my time just latley.
I know its a little tight in the frame but this is not a crop, maybe I need to get back a bit.
5d mk2
500mm
iso 1600
f/5.6
shutter 6400

Not too tight in frame for me - in fact, I might take a little off the right edge. Cracking shot!

Hi Dale

Lovely action-filled shot topped off with the bird's open bill. I'd be tempted to dodge the shadow across the woodpecker's face just to lighen it a little. Other than that its a cracker.

Cheers,
Chris

Hi Dale,

Great Autumn colurs in the background giving a sense of the time of year.

No nits from me. A real corker :toast: :toast:

Excellent shot Dale, don't think this is tight in the frame at all. Captured the fanned wing markings beautifully.
