I thought I’d do something a bit different, directed toward photographers that use Lightroom. I haven’t played much with the new Lens Blur feature recently added to Lightroom thought the green image on the left was a perfect subject to experiment with. The middle image is a duplicate of the one on the left where the Lens Blur has been applied. I found that it ran into the edges a bit so duplicated the original over the processed one and masked and cloned a bit around the edges. Even so, I’m impressed that it did as good a job as it did. The image on the right was the one I intended to post, so I thought I’d include it as well. (American Bittern – Botaurus lentiginosus) (For the image on the left and center, Sony a1, 200-600 @ 600mm, 1/2500 second, f/6.3 ISO 1000. For the image on the right, Sony a1, 400mm f/2.8 with a 1.4 extender for 560mm, f/4, 1/1600 second, ISO 1000)
