A landscape photo of a fall scene with a bunch of trees and various fall colors, such as orange, yellow, red, and even some green. The foreground are tall marsh grasses, which are all pretty much wilted and glowing in orange.

For today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme @robcrank68.bsky.social decided it’s all about #HeadShots, any Birds 'Close Up Capture'.
The Alternative Birds are #Swans.

I’m combining both with a Mute Swan close up.

A cute little Downy or Hairy Woodpecker (they look too much the same and I have no idea on size… their only real difference other than the beak)

I played around with #ICM yesterday… the technique is not quite as simple as it may seem. I do like the swirls in this one 😊
