Sparrows anyone?

[JOAT]

Saw quite a few sparrows today, a white throated, tree sparrow and a few others that I am unfamiliar with. These are a few.

It was pretty much overcast all day and light was scarce so, some shots are quite grainy due to high ISO settings.

The sharpness of #5 is stunning. (Mind you, they are all sharp, but that one specifically just blew me away)

Very nice,:thumbup:, but this :http://www.monzoncreations.com/birds/sparrow6.jpg is a red x and copy and paste gave me a 404 message.

good shooting Joat, nice close ups and such a cloudy PM we had. #5 rocks, how did you get that shot!?

#4 and 5 are my favourites, such lovely shots of such 'ordinary' looking birds

Great series JOAT Gotta agree. Number 5 is killer

Sorry Bill, link should be fixed now.

I did go up to lynde shore and halls rd. to look for the infamous barred owl, but sure enough he wasn't there when i looked. I went once in the morning and twice in the afternoon
....i'm sure he showed up when i left

That 5th shot is about a 50%crop of the original. These sparrows hang around some bushes and there were quite a few of them sitting there. I had to focus between some branches to get a close shot of this guy, hence the blurry effect which are near by branches.



Thanx everyone!

So i heard about these noise programs like noise ninja, Helicon filter and Neat image.

I gave Neat image a go and it's a pretty good program, easy to learn as well.

here's 2 images using this program, I still have to learn it more in depth so it's not perfect
