Comment | The birds were part of a nesting colony about 5 or 6 metres up a Melaleuca tree that was growing in the carpark of a shopping plaza in Cairns. Old nests or new nests under construction are visible around the birds. The tree was located next to a petrol station which is how I noticed the birds. I took a few minutes after filling the car to get some photos. The colony consisted of maybe 50 birds. Many colonies are migratory but some are permanent - I don't know which category this one falls into. | ||||||||||||||||||
Equipment | Canon 80D with 100-400mm handheld at 400mm 1/320 sec, f 8, 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. | ||||||||||||||||||
