Juvenile Blackbird Turdus merula
With these shots I tried a different tack to my normal long
lens approach. I set my camera on the surface of our lawn
with a wireless trigger. As bait a few tasty morsels
of bread placed about 20-30ins in front of the camera and then
retired to observe from our kitchen. Adult birds were scared off
immediately by the shutter firing but the Juveniles were not perturbed.
(Canon 17-85mm lens set at 60mm)
Same photo as below, but the process I went through to get to this stage was, well,... different. I've never done anything in quite this fashion in Photoshop before, but I rather like the results. I'd been messing about, checking out the "Calculations..." option under the "Image" menu, as I'd never tried it before, and got something very similar to this. When I saved it, it didn't save as black and white. After some investigation, I discovered that "Calculations..." has something to do with channel adjustments. So, I duplicated the original image, then desaturated it. (Don't ask me why, 'cause I don't know why I decided to do that. I just did. It's what I like to call a 'happy accident'.) I went back to the original, did a "Select All", copied the results of that "Calculations..." option, then pasted it into the duplicate image. I now had two layers. I changed the blending mode of the pasted layer to overlay, adjusted the transparency to 90%, flattened it, unsharp masked it, and this was the result, which I rather like. Here it is large, or you can take a look at it on black.
I've more images from my fun with my new trigger to upload, but it's late, I need some sleep, and my mind is now bursting from the experience I just had with this image here, and with the fun I had this evening/morning playing with off-camera flash. This has been one mind-expanding day, let me tell ya!
Good night, my FlickrFriends. I'll upload more tomorrow. (Today?) Soon. LOL
