That is incredible detail! I assume you used a 35mm digital camera, but because I have no digital experience I'll ask a question that probably sounds stupid. In the film world, shooting a color photo at 1,000th/sec and rating the film at ISO 800 would produce a drastically under-exposed or extremely grainy image, but your digital image is bright and clear with no apparent grain. Can you simply dial up any ISO you want for the sensor to correct for lighting conditions? Or do you correct in post-processing electronically?

Very sharp . I got that lens a couple of weeks ago and it's been snowing or I've been working and haven't had a chance to use it. Thanks for sharing.

Oh, my goodness, Regis, the detail in the bird's feathers is amazing! You're having fun with your new lens!

Another outrageously sharp photo Regis.
That is an enviable lens.

Your photos are better and better each time. This is astounding!! What kind of fill light did you use?

I used a full frame Canon 6D camera which is equivalent to a 35mm format. This camera can go very high with ISO settings and still have a smooth-looking and detailed photo. This photo doesn't have any post production except for cropping.

Thank you, Tramsey for your kind words.
I never use any fill light. The sun reflecting off the ground snow is my fill light.
