Alfred Posted April 23, 2022 Posted April 23, 2022 A lovely series of photos, @Mortimer. What post-processing did you do? iuli 1 Quote Alfred Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for Windows • Windows 10 Home/Pro Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for iPad • iPadOS 17.5.1 (iPad 7th gen)
Mortimer Posted April 25, 2022 Author Posted April 25, 2022 Hey, Alfred, I am glad you enjoyed my little flying friend. I used the settings indicated and took a five frame burst for all three photos. There wasn't a lot to do with post processing as I had caught this hummingbird at just the right time of day. However, I did go into Affinity Photo and took all three into Develop and reduced the background noise and then used the Clarity tool to enhance. After that, a simple use of the cropping tool and "bingo"... one nice bird shot. The hummingbird is my standard on how a camera is going to perform and whether or not I decide to keep it. My Nikon D5600 and Affinity Photo are both definitely keepers. iuli and Alfred 1 1 Quote
