But I don't know why the bird in the third picture had a yellowish forehead. « Last Edit: May 20th, 2004, 1:39pm by BBS Moderators » Logged Daniel CK Chan BBS Member BBS God I love nature photography!     Gender: Posts: 794 Re: Whiskered Tern 鬚浮鷗 « Reply #1 on: May 5th, 2003, 12:26am » Quote Modify I saw the 1st bird too on 3 May in Tsim Bei Tsui but did not capture it because of the rain.....Daniel   BTW, I like the 1st one. Will "unsharp masking" help for a more clear picture? « Last Edit: May 5th, 2003, 12:27am by Daniel CK Chan » Logged Daniel CK Chan http://www.danielckchan.com BERNARD BBS Member BBS Senior Member I love bird watching!     Gender: Posts: 83 Re: Whiskered Tern 鬚浮鷗 « Reply #2 on: May 6th, 2003, 12:11pm » Quote Modify Hi Daniel,   I cropped out about 70% area for the 1st pic. (ISO200)So I sharpened it with photoshop. It appears less noisy or grainy without sharpening but more blurred. It was about 5:20 pm and I underexposed my picture to gain shutter speed. Then I use digital exposure compensation to light it up. But it lights up the noise as well. The 2nd and 3rd pics (about 5:45 pm) used ISO400 and also become grainy and noisy. The 3rd pic is worst since I cropped out about 80%. Just used this pic to show the yellowish forehead.   Bernard. Logged Eugene BBS Member BBS Junior Member Beep!
