The Photoshop method I use also only reduces noise in background as the Masking protects the bird. Nice to stir up a some intersting points of view. I think we all agree small birds are not easy.


I think we are all coming to that agreement and
as Iain said ......If you cant get a big sharp well exposed low iso picture of the bird, forget it till a better opportunity comes.


I still cant get my head round 20years digital camera development and we STILL have to tune/ hone/ enhance/ change the results in a computer. I think we are all being taken for mugs.

But remember what it was like shooting with 400/800iso film and all the grain.

With the Brexit mess and France looking more like a scene from Les Miserables, we may be caravanning in North Wales this Spring.

camera arrived this morning , first couple of practise shots with my old vivitar manual focus 200mm lens . I think I'm going to like this a lot as processing methods have moved on since I last had one and the files were easy to process just now . if any one has a auto v.r lens they want to donate I won't object o.O

I think that we are looking at small images on a forum software that 'tends' to degrade image quality.
We also need to be aware that technology has moved on since film days when there was no internet web forums with high quality images being displayed.
