I have not long been shooting in raw. I may have gone a bit over the top with some of the controls, but the outcome is, I like them, or I wouldn't show them lol.
I would appreciate you views on them. If you want to read the exif I have linked it under each photo.

Re: Squirrels and a Robin
Thank you all for the kind comments
Steve. The eye on all of them was the same. I never highlighted the eye and done any pp on them. I did focus on the eye on most of them

Re: Squirrels and a Robin
Great shots David. The white snowy background really brings out the colours and makes a big difference.

Re: Squirrels and a Robin
I love the robin shots! Awesome detail especially given your focal length was only 250mm! You musta got pretty close!
My only tiny criticism is the noise on the tail. I see you were shooting at quite a high ISO (1600) and the tail looks quite noisy. I think you could have finished all of your PP, except for the sharpening, and done the sharpening on a layer and masked off the tail. It's only a minor point, but one that I think would make these great shots even better!
Good stuff! Thanks for sharing

Thank you Wayn, Chris and Tommy.
I can see it now Tommy. I didn't see that before on the tails. I will fix tonight. Cheers.
