Love the new Hair-do Martyn Lovely capture, thats the first time I have seen a ringed one at that.Robbie is on vacation at the moment but said he will try and get back before the deadline
Amazing shot for such a high ISO
very nice shot, but imho it looks like there is a bit too much noise reduction, post shot?
That's a corking shot! Well done!
Thanks Phil, weird looking things face on, they take on an angular appearance, unlike their more rounded profile.
I think it is pretty good for such high ISO 'S that I wouldn t even attempt but for me it lacks the detail in the feathers and the noise in the background would bother me but if it was a rarity at least you know you could attempt a shot
If you are judging that by the smoothness of the breast feathers, I can see where you are coming from, however there is little definition in this area on the original. The reason for this is the lack of any direct light, unlike the Blue Tit which had the benefit of some sunlight which aided in giving some relief to the feathers.
Hi Kaz, as I said in a previous post lack of definition is down to lighting, nothing to do with high ISO, if you compare this to the Blue Tit, which had some direct light you will see what I mean, both were shot at 3200, one has detail the other does not.
Photography is all about the right light, no matter what is being photographed.
If it was a rarity I wouldn't be able to get that close
Twice this weekend I have yomped along the back of the dam at Belvide, crawling up over the top to get a close shot of the Great Northern Diver, Saturday the light was awful, and Sunday the ******* thing swam out into the middle ... still you win some and you lose some
That's a cracking shot, nice one!
Oh I see, sorry
Its still impressive though at 3200 don t know if I would do as good with the 50D being having said that I have never tried and I agree its about the light it makes all the difference if you learn about different light situations
lovely shot, how good is that at 3200!
