Spring. Snow. Blah!

Upstate New York has been experiencing an unfortunate amount of cold and snow late in the Winter and early Spring after a rather mild and dry Winter. The upside is the weather has made for continued "birds in snow" photography moments. Above, a female Northern Cardinal is perched on a Butterfly Bush branch waiting for an open spot at the bird feeder while the snow falls.

Photographed handheld with the Canon 7D Mark II and the Canon EF 100-400MM F/4.5-5.6L IS USM lens. Post-processed with Adobe Lightroom CC (exposure and clarity) and Adobe Photoshop CC (curves, noise reduction, sharpness).

Thanks for stopping by today!
