Nice work, Artie!

Thanks John,

Good question. Understand that I was actually exposing so as not to burn the silver feet. As a result, the dark tones are right at about 1 2/3 stops underexposed. In addition the D850 has what I call “tiny pixel” noise that I guess is luminance noise. IAC, it cleans up perfectly. I used the advanced technique as the dark green in the tree also showed a bit of that. If I had not cleaned it up it would have been barely visible.

with love, artie
