I messed up on that used Unsharp Mask in Photoshop CC Amount 250 Rad 1.00 Threshold 1 far too much see white lines on legs.
Re did this one with my normal more modest sharpening in Camera Raw Filter with luminance at 40% and Sharpening at 60%. This also copes very well with any noise at higher ISA settings in bird photography and long lenses. (Slight white lines on legs again but that is only from jpg in big tiff 33+ print no lines at all)


I did wonder if it was the infamous unsharp mask halo. :-)

At the moment I am not doing any post processing of my bird images. I just want to get the technique right with the Fuji XT2 or at least as good as I can. I've ordered a teleconverter to see if more reach will help.

I hope to continue my learning curve next week but the wife has been unwell and I've felt it a bit unfair leaving her at home while I go birding myself!
