Re: PESO The joy of digital
Fine Image. I really like the bark on the branch, as well as the detail on the bird.

PESO The joy of digital
Sometimes your exposure is set for a normal shot, but then something very abnormal comes your way. Like a bird in shadow against a white sky. With digital, you can just fire away and change the exposure in poet without any observable loss of quality. This was shot at ISO 250, f9, 1/800th, which was just right for birds fully lit in a neutral setting. This guy was high up in a tree, shaded and against a white sky. I pulled the trigger and added 3.25 stops of exposure in post, making it approximately ISO 2200. Some contrast and saturation adjustment and then a levels correction, and we were in business. Bluejays are very shy by the way, so I don’t pass one up even in a tough situation. https://www.photo.net/photo/18529442/Proud-Bluejay -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: I think it's a red tail
You did well under the prevailing conditions. Presumably the Bigma? I've tried to get shots like that with my Sigma 170-500 DG without success even in good light.

Re: I think it's a red tail
The tail certainly appears reddish! Those are very nice action shots, Larry. You handled the lighting quite well, and brought out some nice detail.

Re: OT: CAT (Wrap Up)
Larry had it! The f numbers refer to the cat's irises, not the camera. Obviously the same camera f-stop (same DOF), 1st one in dim light, 2nd one fill flash. The first one should perhaps have been f0.9, not f2.8, according to Larry's link.
