About In Central and South texas we have grackles, which are a very noisy bird. They love to congregate with each other at dusk, and the noise is quite amazing. This was shot in one of those rare moments while Margaret was driving. I quickly cranked the exposure to -2.0 to get them in silhouette. Noise reduced in Neat Image Pro.

Dear Paul,

I liked this composition. I can see the birds everywhere with different movements and locations .. Sunset colors are so nice, colors which are seen blue thru orange is so soft..
Congratulations and good luck for your next shot.
Best,

CAgatay

Looks like they can be a problem. We had them in our yard last September when they were getting ready to go south. Didn't stay long. Guess they wanted to get down to Texas for the winter. Very unusual colors. Don.

It is software to reduce the noise you get with a faster ISO setting or in low light. They have a free home evaluation version, but the Pro version is nicest as it offers both Photoshop plug-in-abiliy and full batch processing.
I felt it worthy of a purchase!
