Thank you! I am using the STD profile with +1 for contrast, used AWB(W) that I did not modify.
In Lightroom I boosted whites and contrast, reduced black level (more black), added some sharpening, some vignette. So colours were basically all from in-camera JPEG.
I keep the JPEG profile sharpening at 0 so I can add some later if I need it, though adding more in-camera is also acceptable. Sony does a good job with sharpening in this camera.

These look great. What jpeg profile are you using in camera?
Still amazed at the a9+100-400+2.0 combination.
I know the IQ won't suit all but it certainly suits my back and knees.
This one from the two week Florida trip just returned....could not do this here at home in the eternal cloud bank
This shot took three days, three days of waiting for both eyes. She never moved off the nest in our observation periods and we never say the male. She's obviously sitting on nest and in a difficult spot.

Since most people use Lightroom with Raw, the colors they see are Adobe rendition not Sony's. I haven't used Sony on many people photos yet, but I have always liked the colors out of Sony for landscapes (going back to A6000).
The colors out of A7R3 are now better than ever, especially at high ISOs it is so much easier to get good output straight out of camera.
This was from my first outing with the A9 using the 2x. I think I need to kick up the shutter speed to 1/2000. Still, its rare enough that a ghost gets close enough to me to get the eye while in flight. Northern Harrier in Flight #21 by lennycarl08, on Flickr
