love it. excellent detail in the feathers.

Some nice detail. Think it would be better if it was a little lighter but that's just me opinion.

Hi Mark, having looked I think you are right so have had a little fiddle and re-posted so hopefully a bit better

Stunning shot! Beautiful light and colour quality.

Not an easy bird to photograph as they are usually shy of humans.

 

[markyboy.1967]

Yip, looking on my phone but it all looks good to me.

 

[Bender]

Nice shot. Can I ask what lens you used for this shot?

 

[markyboy.1967]

Have you run it through some noise reduction process as I has that waxy look about it.Still a lovely image though.

 

[Jacobite1746]

Hi Bender, the lens used for this shot was the Sigma 300mm 2.8 with the Canon 1.4 MK111 Extender.

Markyboy I processed this shot using lightroom no noise reduction needed just adjusting exposure and a touch sharpening.

One of many nice Jay images that you have Craig. My view of them usually is limited to a back view as they fly away.
