The Difficult Guy Golden oriole extremely shy and difficult to shoot because always they are under branches and shadowed. This guy also same issue. Hence shot wide open using this lens. Was tough to postprocess this snap, since sky areas visible were blown out and subject was underexposed. Needed lots of time to postprocess and ultimately got this result. Looks reasonably ok. Feel free to give your critics. Gear Used and Exif: Canon 5D Mark III camera + Canon 500 MM glass handheld. Aperture priority with aperture 4 , + 2 exposure bias, ISO 1600 yielded a shutter speed of 1/400 sec at about 11 am. Post processing : Opened RAW file in Canon DPP 4 and then tweaked sharpness, shadows, highlights. Then transported to Adobe Photoshop CC and then selectively adjusted subject and background exposure using RAW filter. Selectively reduced noise and added little punch to subject using clarity, saturation and vibrance slider. Then applied little smart sharpen after cropping. Eurasian Golden Oriole, Hyderabad, AP, India, March 2013.
