Great crested grebe

[Levina de Ruijter]

Taken late in the day with a low sun that gets the whites on these birds easily overexposed. So I exposed for the whites and hoped for the best. I brightened the crest a bit so it stood out against the background and applied some sharpening.

This is where the exif information is good to have. Darn it.

Yeah, it‘s a real pity exifs are missing.
But here it is for the Grebe: ISO640 - f/5.6 - 1/2000s.
Taken with the R6 and my old EF 400/5,6L lens.

I have an EXIF viewer and it shows nothing. The EXIF is stripped from the photo.

Lovely Grebe, Levina.. with lovely Golden Light (foot)

Which EXIF viewer? I hope it’s made for Mac.

Thanks. I’ll look into it.

Two sites I visit have this:

I was told by one admin it was something he coded but the other site has the same thing so I’m thinking it’s a XF add-on. I’m gonna check further.

Must be the forum doing that then, because I uploaded it from my iPad and the exif is present!

And thank you!
