Nice! I remember riding my ZX-10 around that road many years ago when I was stationed at Rhein Main!

Piccure+ testing:

Reprocessed Blackbird On Owl Shot by David Stephens, on Flickr

I tried the free 30-day trial of Piccure+ this weekend. My very first test was this red-wing blackbird attack on a great horned owl, from 2014. It was at ISO 1600, a low shutter speed (I'd been shooting perched owls in overcast light) and at a pretty great distance. Piccure overcomes camera/subject movement with a pixel-by-pixel analysis and sharpening.

No miracle happened, but a substantial improvement was rendered. I'll post the original in the next window for comparison.

Piccure+ is intuitive to use and relatively fast when used on a fast computer.

Well I have a hawk on a phone pole with every other camera, so why not?

Nice one Dave

Trying out a little B&W conversion. 3200 ISO with very little noise.

Which software did you use to do HDR and stitch? I've hand-held many a 7-pano, but never an HDR pano. Did you use a tripod?
