Nice photos session with your little friend Next time, if you didn't... pull the battery when you get a Error 99, may help.

Good job on these, Karl. Detail seems to hold nicely, except on the dark ares where some color noise is visible. I like the compo of the first shot.
Have a Great New Year my friend

thanks everyone on the kind words, glad you enjoyed a few of them


Tim K I remember hearing about native ISO's, will keep that in mind for next time out though I don't remember ISO 1600 looking too good

Ron and Shasoc, yes on the color noise and it wasn't underexposed by much but apparently suffered a bit at the ISO, good eyes to see that

Thanks again!
Karl

Karl, the first is my pick for the very nice composition.
I think a little bit more image to the right would be even better.
From the others is #4 my pick. Nice pose, details and the curved wire fence is kind of cool here.
Good set in difficult light.

A great, set Karl, whether nits can be picked or not.
And in #3, the cutie is winking at you with its right eye; so I presume it's a female? .

These are great to see, Karl. Chickadees are a favorite; they are cute and tough and hang around all winter.
About ISO settings: on both my 1D3 and1D4 I've always stuck to "even" settings, multiples of 200, and gotten good results even high up, as long as I didn't underexpose. Then 2 weeks ago I got a wild hair and set the 1D4 to 640, which seemed reasonable under the conditions, and when I got home and looked at the results I thought, "800 would have been cleaner." Just an anecdote, not science, but there may be a lesson there. (Several years ago "natural" ISOs were supposed to be the only way to go, but I had thought we were past that. It's not photon-collection physics that causes the concern, it's how the gain is implemented after the signal gets out of the CMOS. I'm sure that processing compromises are made in order to get the vast flexibility and speed that we are so spoiled by. )

Nice Karl, I rea;lly like #4... too bad about error 99, when I got that on my cam I had to send to Cannon despite trying everything...good luck.

Very nice set. They are excellent examples of a complete bird photo. IMHO, for whatever reason, #1 does not stand up to the others. The blacks are very well presented with sharp exposure of the eyes.

Cuties, Karl. Reflecting snow works better than fill flash.

Good luck on the Pileated.
