Congratualtions Joel (again) !!
Backyard setup with feeder and hide.
I did some images this morning in very cloudy, rainy conditions so I decided to experiment with higher than usual ISO settings...
1D3
500mm f/4L + 1.4 TCII
Tripod + Wimberly II
AV mode, evaluative metering, rear focus with center AF point only
ISO 3200
f/8
1/320
580 EXII + Better Beamer -2 2/3 stops
Removed the flash catchlight, converted with ACR then used CS5 for levels and selective color adjustment followed by Topaz Denoise, Nik Color EFX Pro (tonal contrast / detail extractor) then noise reduction on BG and finally a touch of USM.
