Blue Tit Leaving their Nest
In May of 2023 a family of blue tits nested one of our olive trees, which gave me the opportunity to photograph their comings and goings. At the time I was using my old Canon 400D and a cheap zoom lens and it was quite the challenge to get a nice sharp shot, so I went for the fastest shutter speed and a high ISO.
Post processing notes:
I cropped the image tighter and adjusted the levels and colours, also added some more blurring to the background and edges to help drawn the attention to the bird. I also made use of the AI Noise Tool and Tack Sharp AI to help combat the high ISO used.Exif information:
