Goldfinch II

[Andreas Liedmann]

Hi folks ... one from today in the garden .
As you might can see from the techs ... it was dull and dark .
Pushed Iso very far .... well at least for the most of you guys . I am not afraid of pushing the Iso , rather get the shot and deal with the noise ....
Perch is what it is ... my fault , just picked one branch and placed it close to the feeder .

Not bad at all for iso 20,000

[William Dickson]

Hi Andreas......The detail, is good at that ISO...A very nice pose...good HA...You need to change the set up in the garden...the OOF perches take away the beauty of the bird.

I like the details, sharpness, clean BG and noise was handled really well. I wish for just a little more of a head turn towards us and like you said perch is what it is. Well processed Andreas.

[Paul Burdett]

Agree with the comments already given. Lovely detail in the bird for such a high iso...well done! I'd crop to just below the tail...the oof section needs to go IMHO.

Andreas excellent processing, that branch could so easily be modified and snapped to produce a more effective presentation.
