Location
I took this picture in mendon ponds state park N.Y.Time
This was around 12:00 in the afternoon.Lighting
There was light all around him but he was in the shade fortunately there was enough light to get the bright red to show up in the picture.Equipment
I used a canon 20DInspiration
I enjoy taking bird shot and i don't get a chance to see these kinds of birds very often so when i do i jump at the chance.Editing
I sharpened it a little then high lightened the color a little.In my camera bag
I have a canon 70D with an18mm-135mm lens and a 150mm-600mm lensFeedback
