Hi Vicma

A very beautiful shot of this woodpecker from a rather unusual POV :)
I like the strong contrast between it and the brighter sky, the exposure is excellently managed and the sharpness is great.
Very well done!

Bravo and TFS

Un adorable punto de vista Victor para captura esta imagen tan bonita como efectiva visualmente.
La ubicación del tronco de la escena me parece fantástico.
Nitidez, foco y buenos colores, completan esta bella presentación.
Un fuerte abrazo y mis mejores deseos... Ricardo

Excellent Picture. Looks like you tampered a little with the background of the pic. But it paid off.

Hola Víctor,
Bello pájaro carpintero. Me alegra ver que no se a extinguir. Buena exposición para la fuere luz del cielo y una excelente nitidez para 500 mm!
Un saludo, José M.

Hello Vicma,
Wow, I'm impressed! I never have seen this specie of Woodpecker. Look at him; he seems like wearing a mask! This is a beautiful capture. I like this POV and control of these difficult lightning conditions. Well seen and well done. Thanks,
Claudine

Hi Vicma.
You are lover of complex situations, are not you? Very difficult lighting. But you managed to create well colored and illuminated image of this cute bird with great details and sharpness. I like its position and impressive tree branch. Presentation of the shot is excellent too. Perfect done and TFS.
Alexei.

Bonjour Victor
Il est superbe ce pic, très bel arrière plan, les couleurs sont très nettes et bien exposée.
Bravo et merci...JP

No si lo que me digo, el Victor cuando tenga el cañoncito y disponga de más tiempo nos lleva al paro a los pajareros. Bueno nos queda el consuelo de que al vivir en una isla las especies de aves son menores ;-) y dos por lo menos veremos fotos de aves...
Yo a este picapinos los he visto muchas veces... pero son muy cabroncetes por estas tierras y cuando estas a 200 metros ya se piran.. por lo que conseguir una foto de estos será dificil que no imposible.........
Buena foto y encima contra ese cielo, mis felicitaciones nuevamente.
Otro abrazote

Hi Vicma,
I can guess this wasn't an easy capture as the birds background is so bright...well done in handling it.An interesting perspective from below.Nice how you have managed to capture its features and texture of its feathers.Well done and take care.
Regards, David

Bonito pajaro, creo que no habia visto nunca ningun pajaro carpintero. Saludos y feliz Navidad.

Hola Victor,
Excelente toma de este pájaro tan esquivo, me gusta la composición y la nitidez conseguidas donde se aprecian muy bien los detalles. Este pájaro lo veo con mucha frecuencia y como dice Jorge no me deja acercar a menos de 200 metros. Mis mas sincero deseos para el año 2007. Un cordial saludo

bonjour vicma
le blanc du ciel est un peu genant pour l'oeil,mais le POV est different et cela donne une autre dimension.d'assez bons details.
bravo et tous mes voeux pour 2007
