i was in the park in the center those days to get some images of flowers , an those guys where on the rails , they dont seem to be afradi from the people , maybe thanks they see a lot every day , so i had the chance to get close to him .
crop topaz denoise , and multiply 2nd layer to bring back some details in whites back of his neck, as it was a bit over .
canon 50d , 1/400 , f 13 , iso 640 , usm is 100 lm macro .
Hi Kostas, good positioning of the head in the frame along with sharp detail. I would have preferred a different light angle so the whole face was lit. I might take out a few of the bright circles and the area below the beak...
Hi Kostas - agree with Dave - light angle is the main issue here - evenly lit and this would have been very nice - like the in your face closeup.
On the tech side - F13 was overkill here - subject is pretty much all on the same plane - F8 would have been plenty and had the advantage of blurring that BG even more.
Keep em coming :)
