Another Snowy with Eyes

Gallery: AvianPosted January 27, 2016504 views3 comments

This snowy is an image of the same one I posted the other day. It is obviously a more traditional pose. Location Syracuse, NY airport December 2013. Image is again a fairly large crop - about 50% 7D2 with 500 F4 and 1.4 TC. I cropped out the perch. Thanks for looking.

Nice portrait, and it's always good to get one of these with the eyes open. I'd be interested in your camera settings-this looks like there's quite a bit of noise in the image.

This is indeed a nice capture, but the noise is very noticeable. I have a 7D Mk II and I can shoot up to ISO 640 without much noise at all. I too would be interested in the ISO setting you chose. I do like those eyes.

Thanks for the comments. The ISO was 3200 F8 and 1/800. yes, the noise is apparent, bu When this is printed at 8 X 12 the eyes and pose dominate the image and noise is secondary. Thanks again for the input.
