Shot from my floating blind last spring in North Dakota.Just love those eyes so mesmerizing like they are reading your soul. Processed with ACR no noise reduction. Been trying some different things in post. I think more noise showed up when I uploaded. I have tried Topaz noise lately and it seems to make more noise if that makes sense.
ACR does a good job on noise reduction. Tried processing a few photos going directly to ACR But thinking using Canons Dpp 4 does a better job especially controlling highlights. A work in progress. Thanks for comments and critiques.
