Summer Tanager - a photo on Flickriver

Summer Tanager

            Captured at Finca Alejandria, near Cali, Colombia, this image features the stunning Summer Tanager (Piranga rubra). Perched gracefully on a branch, the male tanager's vibrant red plumage creates a striking contrast against the lush green foliage. The setting, known as "El Paraíso de los Colibríes," provides an ideal backdrop, enhancing the natural beauty of this exquisite bird. The soft, diffused light filtering through the canopy highlights the intricate details of the feathers, bringing the bird's vivid colors to life.

From a photographer's perspective, capturing this shot was a rewarding challenge. Using a telephoto lens allowed me to maintain a respectful distance while focusing on the bird's fine details. The natural lighting required careful adjustments to balance exposure and avoid harsh shadows. The composition aims to convey a sense of tranquility and harmony, showcasing the tanager in its natural environment. This photograph is a testament to the patience and dedication required in wildlife photography, and it stands as a reminder of the importance of preserving these beautiful ecosystems.
