CommentThis one was photographed on the roadside outside a home on the southern end of the island. It was with another Woodhen. I sat quietly and was delighted when the birds came up within a metre or me at times. This was from one of the close encounters.
EquipmentCanon 80D with EF 100-400mm Mark 2, handheld at 400mm
1/125 sec, f7.1, ISO 2500.
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 using Neat Image plugin for PSE. Adjustments made to lighten shadows and darken highlights.Sharpened after resizing for upload.
LocationLord Howe Island, New South Wales
