House finch

[Alex Becker]

Hi all,

The same house finch also taken at a feeder set up. In post, NR, sharpened, bit of eye work, cropped a little. I think the NR on the green BG is giving some posterization problems that aren't there on the tif but show up when I downsize.

Camera: Nikon D500
Lens: 300 f/4 PF + 1.4 TC
Specs: 1/800 ISO 3200 f/5.6

Thanks for looking and commenting on prior posts!

Hi Alex,

Nice details and colors on the bird. I don't see any posterization on my monitor. I wish for a better HA. If mine I'd remove some yellow from the background. Good image. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Alex, he's a pretty guy for sure. Lovely colors and just a wee bit of posterization on my imac screen, but it doesn't deter the quality. Details are splendid, only wish for a slight bit head turn . nice work.

Like how the bird is on the tip of the perch. Great background. Details look good as well.

Thanks all -- much appreciated. Juan, I'll take a look at the yellow in the BG. Best,
