Welcome to Photo of the Day. The POTD thread was started by iGary in May, 2006 and converted to a monthly thread in November 2007 by Arn. POTD is one of the most popular picture groups on MacRumors, often exceeding 500 posts and 20,000 views per month.
Photo of the Day is intended to be a showcase for your best pictures. There is no limit to your gear, just your imagination. P&S and film cameras are welcome along with DSLRs. There are no themes like the Weekly Contest, and no winners (or losers) either.

Yesterday I posted (on some other thread, I can’t remember which ;)) a photo from the swarm at my bird feeders on Wednesday. The other photo I was trying to get was one with a cardinal; one would occasionally appear and peck at the bottom tray, this flaming red splotch among mostly grays and browns. It proved tough: the best compositions had the most noise or the cardinal has his back turned. WHY CAN’T NATURE TAKE SOME DIRECTION??!!

Anyway, this is the best I got, I think.

Maybe It’s a feature😁 Sorry…

It’s a very nice photo. I think that black and white photos are especially good on railways and old machines, because it’s very hard to guess when the photo is taken.
For example, if you take a b/w photo of a new car or new tech, everyone, or at least most, knows that the photo is taken now.
But that’s my opinion😊
