Still sorting Kenya images: This is a Blacksmith Lapwing in a riverbed.

What noise? My eye is drawn to the bird as a picture, it sees no noise, the lichen on the branch and I think I can even see you reflected in the birds eye, have you tried blowing up (and reducing the contrast a bit) on the the birds eye? I think you might be surprised... If I examine the grain, yes there is texture but as a viewer of the picture I see only bird and branch, lovely, thank you for posting. The masters such as Turner have brush strokes in their pictures but your eye and brain are drawn to the image not the detail of the texture I think we get too hung up about suchlike, look at the whole, not the minutiae.

I personally think it would benefit pictorially with a bit more space 'to breath' around it.  I somehow feel such a small bird, bizarrely, intimidating .....especially when looking down on me.

I prefer the full size, uncropped image (post157). The other cropped version is like from a bird spotters identification book that shows little context and environment. Each has their uses but my preference is for the uncropped.

JK and Eric are both right, I enlarged too much but was showing the quality and at high ISO D500 images can not be blown up as much as the same sized blow-up from a D850 image. With just a modest crop that image would still make a good quality A3+ print. That image was with the full 400mm plus x1.4 and like small birds in this country it would not let me get closer than this, even after sitting there for over 2 hours.

This size of crop appeals to me..
