First trip out with my new RF 600 F/4 and I captured a Coopers Hawk

Trip had been kind of a bummer up to that point, but on the way out of the park I saw some movement to my right and captured a few shots of a Cooper's Hawk

so awesome! nice work

Always nice when it seems all is lost, then some great shots come up. Nice work!

Beautiful shots! Just curious about processing, did you have to use a noise reduction aid, given the ISO 3200?

I did, I have recently started using DXO PureRAW for high iso noise reduction, and I am a huge fan. Initially I was only using it for my high iso shots, but now I have fully integrated it into my workflow (see this thread for my workflow https://photography-on-the.net …/showthread.php​?t=1522949)

I am a huge fan of DXO pure raw. It is almost a must shooting an Olympus OM-D EM1 MKII. I get great result pushing ISO 3200 and better sharpness and detail.

Thanks, that one is my favorite as well
