Comment | The grebes are back at a golf course dam near home. They were there last winter too. This year there are two Australasian and two Hoary-headed. I haven't had much luck photographing them so far. A shame the right hand bird out of focus range. Taken with an angle finder so I could get my camera close to the water surface. | ||||||||||||||||||
Equipment | Canon 80D with EF 100-400mm Mark 2, handheld at 400mm 1/200 sec, f7.1, ISO 1600. Initially processed in Canon DPP 4 to crop, adjust exposure and lighting and perform noise reduction (at about 50% of default values). A 16 bit TIFF file was created from the RAW DPP image and finished in PSE (Adobe Photoshop Elements v9) where further noise reduction was applied to the main subject(s) using Neat Image plugin for PSE. Stronger noise reduction was applied to the remainder. Main subject selected and adjustments made to lighten shadows, darken highlights and increase midtone contrast as appropriate. Inverse of main subject selected and adjustments made as appropriate to contrast, highlights, shadows and saturation to make the bird stand out more effectively. Main subject sharpened after resizing for upload. | ||||||||||||||||||
