Great crested grebe - Podiceps cristatus, with chicks.
... if I'd know that. --Hockei (talk) 08:31, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't realize that this would be a species in which the male and female birds look the same to us humans, without our ultraviolet light perception. Is that true? I like your new version and will support it, once you change the file description to "Great crested grebe (Podiceps cristatus) parent with chicks", since we see only one parent. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:59, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment Based on the photo you took showing both birds, this is the male. Charles (talk) 07:36, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
If so, that should be specified in the file description. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:43, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
There is no posterization at all. I never produce posterization, mainly because I don't use unsharp mask. What you see is dense plumage covered with water. --Hockei (talk) 08:31, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
See my comment above. I won't clone anything. Neither out nor in, except removing dust spots coming from lens or sensor. --Hockei (talk) 08:31, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
