White-Chested Emerald (Amazilia brevirostris) With Flash After Processing. 1/60 sec f/6.3 ISO 200
After processing, the delicate gold inflorescence with flash is breathtaking, preserving details. Just for comparison, I have included the same White-Chested Emerald without flash, again almost a different bird in appearance. Without the flash the namesake emerald colors predominate. I hope this drives home the point that you need to take photographs both with and without flash to fully represent any particular bird species.
