My first shot with my A7RIV on a trip. In Los Angeles for a business meeting and decided to drive up the Pacific Coast Highway to Malibu for dinner. I stopped along the road side when I came upon this amazing tribute to the victims of September 11th. The 12th annual Waves of Flags placed on the sloping green lawn at Alumni Park at Pepperdine University in Malibu. There are 2,887 American flags for each American life lost and 90 international flags representing people from other countries.
Beautiful sunset in the background and a wonderful memorial and remembrance to all the victims and their families!
Taken hand held as my tripod was packed and in the trunk with little light left to grab the picture. Probably should have realized I didn't ned such a high ISO but I was rushing
Nice capture!
Just too much noise for my taste - I am sure the 1000 iso you used should provide better results with this camera.
Perhaps you should check which way to process this or use a different denois-software ?
Yes it was at ISO 4000 but it was also very dark and I pulled 3 stops or so out of it on LR. I didn’t spend any real time trying to adjust the noise in LR or one of the other programs I have. Maybe I’ll take some time with it and see if I can improve it when I get some time.
Although the noise is noticeable but it doesn't diminish the beauty of that image. You did a great job capturing it, Chuck! So, there was zero adjustment is LR in regards to the noise at all, huh? And you are right, if after you have played with that noise reduction setting, just the masking helps a lot, or run a noise reduction program then, the noise aspect wouldn't be an issue anymore.
Joshua,
Thank you for your kind feedback. I found some time today to redo the original post using the Topaz DeNoise AI program. I really like to result of the reprocessed picture and I feel the impact of the high ISO noise has been diminished enough to create an even better result.
