This post goes for 'Show me a photo (of a bird)' contest, round #159. Week's topic was 'Alone'. I was sorting out my winter photos, and suddenly found a picture that fit perfectly for the given prompt. Also, I was in a mood for black-and-white, so I edited it in monochrome.
That day, heavy, wet, sticky snow fell, and it covered all surfaces, decorating everything around with a white border: branches and tree trunks, leaves, trellises... At the same time, the sun hid behind the clouds, so the picture looked almost like pure monochrome. (In the color version, I deliberately enhanced the color component).
A whimsically decorated white silence covered everything around with a blanket. And the lone crow was the only active element of the picture :)
NB. 5% of the post rewards go to the Feathered Friends community.
Looks like eye candy with popping green on bridge!
Haha! eye candy, thats well said -> exactly like I am feeling about it myself. Without the bridge, or without the crow, the candy would not be so appealing and delicious... Joan, let me treat you with this juicy hot Hive !PIZZA, and thanks a lot for your compliment - much appreciated! 🙏
Great capture crow had the bridge to himself to strut over!
Such a beautiful winter picture with the lonely bird. I love the composition.
Grazie! 😘 (I enjoyed the classic 35mm here).
It always amazes me how birds and animals survive in the cold. Nice shots of that bird! And it's definitely very alone! I'll have to try the contest out too, it's one I haven't done yet!
SMAP is a pleasure to take part, believe me! Maybe with just one exception, for those who do not have telephoto lens, it becomes not so easy to get a capture. But still, sometimes there s a chance to slip in. Check the Prompt on Mondays, and sometimes there is definitely a room to take part. 🤠 !BEER

I didn’t even know which picture to choose as the best but I think the monochrome is the best
Looks really good
Thank you for leaving a compliment, Rafzat. With a little time passed, the more and more I agree that B-W worked better than colour for this capture. Have a nice day! ☘️

В ч/б очень душевно.
Мерси! меня что-то потянуло на тонирование. (Инсталлировал на той неделе последнюю, 16.2.0 версию плагина Camera Raw, смотрю как там устроено, играюсь - добавили весьма много художественных тонирующих фильтров, некоторые весьма приятные). В паре ближайших постов, думаю, будет много ч-б :=)
Congratulations @qwerrie! You received a personal badge!
Wait until the end of Power Up Day to find out the size of your Power-Bee.
May the Hive Power be with you!
