The first two are amazing Chad, outstanding detail and colors. I like the rest of the series as well, but those first two...........great job!

Perfect lighting for the first image of the Mandarin Duck. Since the background is so nice, I wish that you would have taken the shot with a bit more BG and not as tightly cropped. Well, sometimes you just have to capture the moment with whatever gears you have on hand. Beautiful shot anyway, Chad.

Great shots. Truly it was only a matter of time before they fixed the 1D3 and what a treat it is with someone behind it who knows what he is doing.
Tnx

Slau ~ I have a few that are not cropped so tight, I just wanted to show the detail of this beautiful duck.

The 5D "magical" look is different from the Mk III magical look. IMHO more detail at 100% + with the 5D around ISO 1600. All of these comments would be about RAW.

I think you just sold about 100 "blue dot specials" for Canon. Nice shots.

Yes, I shoot RAW 99% of the time, most all post processing was done in Capture one 3.7.7, I can't wait for 3.7.8 to come with full M3 support, I don't like the new Capture 4 myself.

I did very little in CS3 photoshop other than some minor levels adjustments and cropping.

Thanks for the time to comment.

You must be adding contrast in Capture one....I never get that look from my raw conversion..... Unless you're really squeezing the histogram when you make your levels adjustment...That tends to boost local contrast a bit,,,,either way...they look awesome..Whatever you're doing works well for you.,

Yes, I do most my color adjustments in Capture one, and just some small level adjustment in CS3. Thank you for the praise.

No thanks needed.. You're pictures look great, but I do have one question? Do you choose to make those adjustments in C1 for any paticular reason, rather than do it in CS3?

I'm only asking because I'm always looking for new way's to skin a cat, or to beat a dead horse. Please excuse the metaphor.

Those mandarin shots are great. We have a new term to describe sharpness...."blue dot sharp"

Sweet! 4 - 7 of the Mallard flight is really nice. The lighting is incredible. Those shots have that "5D" magical look to them. Gotta luv it.

The color is better from the mkIII than the 5D (I have both). I thought the 5D color was just fine until I got the mkIII.
