[QUOTE="Clovishound, post: 835392, member: 50197"] This is another image that I find something in it that I really like, but it just seems to miss the mark somehow. The story behind this one is that I went back to try my hand at some more hummingbird images. I tried several different exposure settings. This one was the one I bumped up the shutter speed to 1/8000 of a sec just to see the difference. As I started editing some of them, I discovered I really liked the pose and look of this image. BUT, the high ISO (7200) probably ended up killing the fine detail. It did kind of give it a nice soft look, but I'm used to good detail in my wildlife pictures. At high magnification this looks overprocessed. I ran it through Topaz, and believe I actually backed down slightly off the recommended denoise and sharpen values. Is it just me holding too tightly to high detail expectations? Or, should I just can this one and move on? [ATTACH type="full"]421034[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
