CommentThis is definitely not a shot that follows the rules of having a nice clean, uncluttered background but I liked it all the same. Taken in nice warm light shortly before sunset at a golf course dam a short walk from home. I was able to stand on a large earth bank and so get a near eye-level shot of the bird - although it didn't like me that high and didn't stick around for very long.
EquipmentCanon 80D with EF 100-400mm Mark 2, handheld at 400mm
1/400 sec, f7.1, ISO 1250.
Initially processed in Canon DPP 4 to crop, adjust exposure and lighting and perform noise reduction. 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 using Neat Image plugin for PSE. The background was noise reduced and the main subject sharpened after resizing for upload.
LocationKambah, Australian Capital Territory
