Ghost Hawk
Feb 7, 2022 18:37:19 #
for Create 52 group on Face Book last week- In Camera manipulation
actually an accident
Saw the hawk focused, one shot, hawk gone and it was way over exposed because of high ISO? The hawk was in bright sunlight. But the settings should not have done this because ISO was on Auto. Maybe auto iso was out for a coffee break. I was using spot meter on the hawks darkest feathers, but they are over exposed also. Perhaps there is a visit to the Canon service center in 80D's future. I am a 25 minute drive from one of their service centers.
I have tried several ways to salvage it, here are 3 + the OOC.
I think I need to go take a nap, I am getting fixated on this image and it really isn't worth the effort and time.
If anyone can do something with the OOC and really needs something to do - Go For It! One Face Book photo group I belong to is doing a thing where people post an OOC and different people are taking a go at different edits. I put the OOC up as my version of an "extreme challenge".

Runs through Topaz Denoise AI twice + more tone and color tweaks & a bit of sharpening.

Hmm! LR's latest updates and Window's latest updates don't seem to play well together. The signature in pale yellow at lower right is from a different copy of a crop but somehow it is now on the original imported image/!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Yesterday I found a dead hawk next to my front door. He must have flown into my storm door and broke his neck.

Either that or you have one HUGE neighborhood cat leaving you presents.
We had an indoor/outdoor cat that often brought presents, mice, birds, lizards etc.
My wife wasn't amused when they were on the front door step as she was going in or out and when Kitty came in through the garage to the kitchen Mama really got upset. After he scolded Kitty she would get a very sorry look and meow, then it would happen again the next day.
