I got this photo from a montane forest sortie this year beyond the usual eagle lookout or more than 3 hours birding hike from the lodge. I burned the whites but managed to capture some details of this canopy dweller. Thanks for viewing.

Another rare catch and deserving after a 3 hour hike. Not easy with a 600mm loaded with a camera & tripod. Congratulations Nilo.

Great capture considering the very contrasting B&W color, you were still able to capture much of the details, Nilo!

Thanks Ramon and Onnie. Ely, the hike gets harder and more difficult with thinning bird activity  Neon, I was surprised the photo turned out well considering the lighting conditions. Thanks. |
