Location
This photo was taken in a wooded area in Southern New Brunswick, Canada.Time
I had been hiking that afternoon when I came across this little guy, I followed him for about a half an hr so I could get the perfect shot.Lighting
The sun was out in full force that day so I had to try to positon myself at an angle that would have the sun behind me.Equipment
I used a Nikon Coolpix L820 CameraInspiration
I love adventuring into the outdoors and photographing all that nature has to offer.Editing
I adjusted the contrast slightly as well as the foreground lighting to bring out the colours of the woodpecker.In my camera bag
All I typically bring with me on a hike is my camera and a keen eye.Feedback
When photographing wildlife it is extremely important to be patient and in the end it usually pays off and you get the shot you hoped for.
