Two closeup images of a Great Egret dancing to attract a mate.
Another test series using Topaz Labs software.
The issue was the usual in a dark location. High ISO grain and loss of clarity in places with low light.
Images like these have no room for error, the bird was too close to hide any details.
Topaz De Noise AI and Sharpen AI were both used to finish the photographs.
The detail looks great on these images, Ted. Are you using the Topaz trial versions or have you broken down and bought the software packages?
Thanks. I have been using De Noise for a while now. Just finished the trial of Sharpen and purchased it. Noise was the issue here, but sharpen helped pull back the edges. Both are good as backups to the regular Lightroom.
Absolutely stunning photography, Ted!
Wow, thanks so much. One of the best shows in nature.
That is gorgeous. 🙂
Thank you. I took many photos of that dance, however he was under a dark thick canopy. These needed work, and finally got the time needed. Thanks again.
