how can i improve my bird shots

 

[a_medico]

@kapil @sujoy - Yes. Ajanta.

@game-freak - awesome clicks. last one probably is too tight. needs more space around the bird, in the frame.

@ game-freak: The first one's a great shot. Looks like a painting. The bird shots are too grainy.

@game-freak

How about this:

[sujoyp]

@medico its still looks like taken on ISO 3200

the game freak's 2nd attempt is better ...and that flower on the top is really increasing the beauty .

 

[pranav0091]

^ Agree. I'll have a go at editing this one later in the evening if I still remember

 

[izzikio_rage]

good pics gamefreak, I guess a little noise reduction is required in some of the darker ones

 

[nac]

Gamefreak, First one is good, but it little dark...

@game-freak - the bird pic is awesome
here is an edit from my side

try checking if u are underexposing images when clicking or oversharpening during post processing.

 

[a_medico]

I did try to include the flower but in that case, the bird gets pushed towards the edge and looks out of the frame. Also corrected the WB. There was too much of green. Did try to reduce the noise too, but after a certain stage, it looks artificial.

same, i just added some warmth and opened shadows a bit along with some topaz denoise "RAW strong" preset. It applies some kind of a median filter to smooth out the grain but some times the artifacts are visible.
regarding croping there is no definite answer ,i just wanted to add up the look and the feel of the surrounding.
Long time back I had tried some snaps with EOS600D and forgot to check the exposure(was in manual mode) the resulting image was dark but after some retouching it was alright(thanx to the 14bit raw) along with some objectionable amount of noise.
