Here is a photo of a common blackbird. The photo didn’t work well in color but I liked it more in black and white. It’s still not perfect but the reason I converted the image was that the colors looked dull, and the background was way too intrusive. But now that’s not the case anymore and the bird pops a bit more out. There are more bird photos on my blog. Continue reading Blackbird
Not much to say about the photo above, apart from the fact that it is a Common Blackbird. We have them everywhere flying around in our districts. Currently I do more sports than hiking, and when I just roam around in our city districts, I shoot more common photos, like common birds, cats and stuff like that. Two days ago I was running again and was totally mad when I saw this grey heron with a fish between the beak. Of course I don’t have a camera with me when I go run. But maybe I shouldn’t complain, because I … Continue reading Common Blackbird
There are probably enough photos of common blackbirds on my blog, but it’s difficult to stop taking photos of them when they are all around you (laugh). I like them! Continue reading Common Blackbird
I thought I share one of my photos again. As you might have noticed, I didn’t do that very often recently. The main reason is that autumn starts and me and my friends, we are completely in PC gaming mood right now. When I spend time with my friends in computer games, I don’t want to spend extra time doing other things on the PC. That means I am currently not in the mood to spend additional hours to edit pictures or uploading them. Also, this autumn and winter I will probably try to work off my backlog of photos. … Continue reading Taking it Easy
Above is another entry for my common blackbird gallery. The original image was not very good, that means there was heavy editing done. That included almost everything like cropping, tone editing, sharpening and noise reduction. It’s not perfect quality but … Continue reading Common Blackbird Again
Here is a photo of a common blackbird again. I could get quite close with my Tamron 70-300mm lens, but I cropped the image to get even closer. The image quality didn’t suffer too much, I like how it turned out. It’s interesting, because you would think they always look the same, and they basically do, but since I shot many photos of common blackbirds, I start to notice differences. Yeah, they are black, but the body shape is often very different, or the feather tone can vary or the length of the beak for example. The bird in the … Continue reading Common Blackbird Close-Up
