Ruby-crowned Kinglet revisited

Christopher Dodds May 3, 2023

I am working on something special with Sony of Canada and Gosselin Photo at Parc-nature du Bois-de-L'Île-Bizard in Montréal, Québec, on May 27 in English and May 28 in French. Follow the links below to learn more.

While working on the event, I came across this image of a Ruby-crowned Kinglet made at Parc-nature du Bois-de-L'Île-Bizard in Montreal on OCTOBER 8, 2004, with a Canon 1D MK II, 500mm f/4 & 1.4X extender.

I reprocessed the image using the latest Adobe Camera Raw and the new noise reduction with AI. Talk about giving new life to an old favourite image! I am thrilled with the results!

The image was made at 1/50s at ISO 200 because those early digital cameras couldn’t produce quality images at higher ISO. I remember how many photos were thrown away because the subject had moved. So happy today with the ultra-high ISO performance of my Sony Alpha 1s which allows me to shoot at 20,000 ISO comfortably!

This image won the bird photography category and best overall picture in the only photo competition that I have ever entered :)
