[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note [Spanish]
The Blackcap, Sylvia atricapilla, is a common and widespread sylviid warbler which breeds throughout northern and temperate Europe. Its color pattern is unique in the genus Sylvia; the Blackcap's closest living relative is the Garden Warbler which looks different but has very similar vocalizations. These two, whose ranges extend farther northeastwards than other Sylvia, seem to form sister species well distinct from the other typical warblers...

Hola Victor,
I have tried many times to try to get a good shot of a Black cap but have not yet succeeded and here you have a fine capture of it in the bird bath!
Excellent lighting, colours and sharpness and a fine pose in the water. Superb contrast with the dark BG.
TFS this beautiful image,
Un abrazo,
Ivan

Hi Vicma,

A beautiful Blackcap - a new bird for me. I love this shot of him taking his bath - even the reflection is lovely. A wonderful expression on his face, a sparkle in his eye, superb colors and details. Perfect background and a wonderful composition. Can you tell how much I like it?

Hola Vicma, splendid bird with fantastic reflections, fine details and excellent sharpness, beautiful composition, very well done, have a good week end, ciao Silvio

Dear Victor,
very clear, pretty and lively image, the object perfectly highlighted in subtle colours. Thank you!
With best regards,
Peter

Hola!
Vaya tonos y contrastes mas majos para esta escena de baño.
La pose, la claridad y el fondo funcionan juntos a l perfeción.
Lo único es que se me tuerce un poco la cabeza cuando miro la foto, ya que me da la impresión de que el agua se va a escurrir por el lado izdo., yo diria que tendrías que girarla un poco para que se ponga a nivel :)
Felicidades y un saludo.

Hola Vicma,
Como esta usted!
Very cute looking Wabler taking it's bath!
good pov with the beautiful lighting and reflection!
perfect sharpness, good colour and details
muchas gracias
Saludos su familia

Spettacolare cattura di maschio di capinera, un uccello così schivo e difficile da fotografare nascosto nei cespugli, splendida composizione con il riflesso e lo sfondo scuro, ottima nitidezza, bellissimi i colori e la luce. Grazie e complimenti. Ciao Maurizio

Hi Amigo Vicma,
Splendid shot of this blackcap with excellent details. I liked especially the posture of the bird and the reflections too. TFS. Have a nice weekend my friend!
Cheers,

Hello Vicma,
I wish a Blackcap would come to our birdbath! We don't see it here very often, it's a lovely bird and it is obviously enjoying its bath here! Very nice capture in beautiful light and I like the 'wet details' of the bird. A lovely colour on the background too.
Many thanks and regards, Ulla

Hi
Very nice shot. Good sharpness and exposure. Perfect OOF background. I am wondering about a square crop here (without the part on the right side). I think that it will improve the composition

Hola Amigo,

Hola Victor.
Es sorprendente la iluninacion lateral que se tiene en esta bella foto, el fondo difuso casi obscuro le da mas realce a la presentacion, y con alta nitidez y colores suaves bien definidos, lo que hace que esta sea una joya.
Recibe un fuerte abrazo de toda la Fam.
Luego te escribo un mensajito.

Hola.
El pandurus de la imagen anterior no tendrá nada que ver con Ramón el pan duro ¿no?.
Fabuloso baño ahora que hace calor.
Buen PoV.
