Emberiza calandra looking for a mate at sunset.
To use a shutter speed that would freeze the bird’s song, I had to increase the ISO to 5000. I left the aperture wide open to let in as much light as possible. I used a telephoto lens so as not to scare the bird away.
Post processing notes:
ON1 Proto RAW 2026. Noise was corrected using NoNoise AI by adjusting the basic parameters to reduce noise. Only the lighting was then adjusted and the image cropped for compositing.Exif information:
