Day off today, but it's wet and windy with a gale off the Atlantic. No chance to get out with the camera today so I've been playing with vegas.

40s of Coots and Little Grebes on a pond on the mainland.

(Edit: a few tweaks to the levels etc.)

Water colours lovely Grant but I couldn't get clear images of the birds ... the price of compression perhaps, I'm not sure.

Hi Brendan,

I just tried a bit of tweaking to get some more detail on the birds. I lowered the gamma on a couple of the clips and then added a sharpen... but after I'd rendered it wasn't a lot better than the first attempt.

A few close-ups might help. I hope the light is as good the next time I'm there!
