    Default Marching Crow ....

    Hi folks .... after the recent comment by Dorian and Steve about the feet being hidden by the leaves on the ground .
    I made it better with the Crow .... IMHO

    Same spot as the Jay , but other equipment used .

    Canon EOS 1Dx III
    EF 500 IS L II
    HH

    F 4 ; Iso 10.000 ; 1/1000 sec ; man exp

    Processed with C1 and PSCC 2022 ; had to add canvas on RHS and Top as the framing was too central in the original . So basically full frame . Left some blueish hue in the plumage .... cause I liked it .

    Thanks for looking and commenting to my previous posting

    Cheers Andreas

    Hi Andreas, I like it and the raised foot works. For me there is just the right amount of FG and the low POV keeps on delivering. Perhaps a tad more NR on the underneath of the tail and body, or is it cross Curves (been a long time since I've seen it so not sure).

    Yes, the foot -- even if out-of-focus -- adds interest and action! Lovely detail on the head and face. Steve's suggestion about extra NR is a good one. You did well given the lighting conditions and black subject.

    Works for me Andreas. I love the amount of detail you have captured (processed?) in the blacks. Cheers.

    Rich blacks and still good detail there, small amount of noise I see it but hey if I had that amount at ISO 10000 I would be extremely happy! I didn't really notice much blue Andreas but I think I see magenta, is it light bouncing off the leaves (on the belly).

    Thanks Paul, Dorian and Jon for your comment .

    @ Jon .... well I do notice the blue and the red/magenta reflection . Left the reds as it looked natural to me ... but can also see a version with them reduced .
