Pileated Portrait

http://joeleadephotography.zenfolio....61771372-4.jpg

Another great week of photos. We have two portraits that really caught my eye this week. Joel, that is an awesome shot of a pileated. The detail of that shot is amazing. Jerry, your shot of the couple with the baby grand would make any customer very happy and I really like it. Looking at these two, they both are excellent in their own way. Taking this in mind, I will have to go with the difficulty of getting a pileated shot. Congratulations Joel!

Thanks....I was lying down on my back looking up at a perch and the suet feeder hanging from a deck rail. I was trying to get a close up of a Downy WP because they are so friendly and are mostly unafraid of me. I did not expect "the big guy" to come around and could not get him in the frame completely from so close....thus the head shot :) ( Detail is courtesy of the 5D MKIV sensor )

Congrats Joel! Man it is getting tougher by the minute to win this thing! I love it!
