Well done very good Kingfisher pix! This morning, at last, a Goldfinch landed on my posing stick I put next to the bird feeder. Not quite as crisp as I would like but at last a bird has posed for me even if only for a split second! D950 with 500mm and x1.4 quite a big blow up ISO 1600 1/320 sec at F8 Attachment: Goldfinch2906.jpg (Downloaded 33 times)

lovely pose graham , I'm not playing tit for tat but to me that looks very pallid , dont know if its the upload to the forum etc but if it looks o.k on your monitor it could be why your seeing mine as too vibrant ... it does raise the question though ..

I would say that the image is probably colour correct as it came out of camera but looks like it needs sharpening. We need to be careful that Sat/Vibrance sliders dont become a defacto +50! I have to say that I tend to use Sat +12, Vib +27 or thereabouts for my Nikon images but much less for the Fuji cameras.

Just +20% contrast will do the trick. 😉 Attachment: 05B06E96-1EAF-45C4-B728-612146EDE90A.jpeg (Downloaded 30 times)

Yes much better. Interestingly due to the increased contrast it looks sharper as well but this is normal.

One of the 'new' adjustments in Lightroom is Dehaze, it's very powerful and I use it very sparingly, 3 - 10% at the most in normal images. I believe it's a complex algorithm similar to highlight and shadows, which increases the micro contrast of detail at the dark end. It can transform an image without affecting the overall settings. A sort of detail extractor, it can bring out otherwise invisible (or unnoticeable), detail and texture.

Yup...got it in Affinity Photo as well...it's very good. I use it to lose some of the 'haze', or rather, internal reflection when photographing through double glazing. In it's own way it adds contrast and clears any 'fogging' whatever the source.
