Black-necked grebe, Podiceps nigricollis

[Jan van Holten]

This is the complete group of three from the same evening as the image I showed earlier. During this shot the sun was gone already and the birds really prepared for the night. Did not apply much shadow reducting. Sharpening also very limited.

F5.6
ISO 800
SS 1/400
SS a bit low but was struggling with the wind and didn't want to miss this shot. Very shortly after this shot they were gone.
Before this 1DX I had a 1D mark4 wich had terrible noise in shadow areas. So in the beginning I was a bit to carefull with raising the ISO.
