I shot this @ 1/40s, f5.6, 400mm, ISO 100 through a very dirty kitchen window, hand held, cropped, using the A6400 APS-C camera. The camera does not have IBIS but the lens has image stabilization. Pressed the lens hood up against the glass.
It demonstrates that breaking the rules can sometimes work. Not a wall hanger but still useable.
Looks like the woodpecker was into berries by the stains in its breast.
Nice shot! Deviating from the rules leads to creativity, innovation, and opportunities for exploration. Nice work!
