[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
hello, here is another puffed up dove on cold
february day, sometimes i note the wheater
and sometimes no, here i don't remember what
was the temperature, but it was sure a cold day,
something like -5 to -10 celcius

this photo it is not taken in RAW because
with the RAW format i can not double my zoom,
so i was in JPEG to double my zoom of 300mm

3 photos before this one, the photo :
« When birds keep warm in the winter »
i give a link « « How do birds keep warm in the winter? »

for this photo i found another link that i'll give you :
it is a PDF link « Your Winter Birds:
Who They Are, and What to Feed Them »

it is an excellent link :

Salut Asbed,
C'est vrai que les oiseaux demeurant avec nous l'hiver méritent bien de profiter des quelques heures où ils peuvent reprendre des forces, bien souvent avant une «autre» nuit sous zéro! Good shot!

This is a nice shot of a chilly dove. Sharpness and colors are nice. I like the strong diagonal line. A little more space on the top may have made her more comfortable.

Une image informationnelle et bon aussi. Une pose très protective alors. Le Fuji fait quelques agréable optique. Très bon monsieur Asbed.

Nice capture with the dove protecting itself against the cold. Nice clarity accomplished against the sky. Well done.

TFS!

Hello Asbed.

Very nice capture of this dove in winter. I like the perch in well puffed size of the body. The sharpness and details are so pristine against the spotless sky. Well done and thanks for sharing. Best regards.
