he other day I was determined to get a photo of this year’s fledgling Downy and Red-bellied woodpeckers. Outside I headed with my trusty digital camera to sit on the front yard bench and wait for my new friends to appear. The babes were happy to oblige and I began snapping photos fast and furious. Thru my view finder the shots looked great. Mission accomplished. Later that evening, I process the pics and was left scratching my head? Huh? The pictures were taken in midday. ??? Finally, I checked the settings on my camera and discovered the “best shot” selection was on “night time.” Below is what happens when you shoot daytime photos with a dusk lens. Weird, but kinda pretty just the same.
