Shy Dunnock Surprised
I was out birdwatching at a local reservoir when I came across this dunnock in a patch of bright sunlight. It initially has its back to me, but when taking photographs it tuned to look at me and then flew off. Luckily I got ths picture just before it flew off.
Post processing notes:
I used ON1 Photo RAW 20025 to do the following: 1) crop the photo, Use the Brilliance AI to set the brilliance to 100, 3) Use local adjustment to ret the Flora to 0 and the animal to 100, 4) and finally I switched lens correction on for my Nikkor 180-600/5.6-6.3 telephoto lens.Exif information:
