Brown fronted woodpecker

Brown fronted woodpecker, Sattal, May 18
f/5.6, 1/640, ISO-1250

Cute fellow. I think a bit more sharpness would have been great. Was the original image underexposed? The details in the dark areas are less. Since the bird is predominantly black with a few white and coloured feathers, it would be important to expose more to the right so that the dark areas have more details. How much of a crop is this? Thanks for sharing.

Lovely perch and eye contact. The yellow and red coloured feathers on the head make it look like it is wearing a crown like the red indians ☺. Maybe just a bit less space on the left would have been fine. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Sabyasachi and Mrudul for comments. It is about a 50% crop. The image was not underexposed, however I have made the background little darker.

Good shot. Color have come out very well. Thanks for sharing.

Nice picture of the woodpecker, Dr.Katre. The halo around the bird looks lovely and the colored crest looks like a painting palette. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Subhash and Murugan for your comments.
