Full-Frame RF 100-500 and 1.4

It's not a wall mount but taken with My R6III. I did crop down below 1600 on the long side, applied LrC's Super Resolution which doubled pixels and sized to 1600 at export.

I should add I'd never normally crop this much. Just thought I'd try it out.

Depending on your subject, upscaling can be very effective. I use Topaz Photo when I decide to go that route.

I do have v1 of Photo AI and Gigapixel which I purchased when I got Photo AI. That fall was the first release of Photo AI. I had Denoise and Sharpen AI and Topaz said they would throw in Photo AI for free if I purchased Gigapixel.

I never used Gigapixel and I was planning on getting Photo AI v2 but that spring Adobe came out with Denosie AI.

I have read good things about Photo but is pretty pricy these days with the subscription. I’ve only used Super Resolution once before and don’t see myself using it often. Subjects that small don’t usually make it past my first pre-cull. There will always be a closer bird.
I was just curious about that shot would look like with the lens and converter

Looks great!

So the 1.4x gives double the pixels on the duck, and then LR doubled them again.

I tried LR super resolution years ago and was disappointed. Maybe it has improved since then.

Thanks. I won’t be using SR very much. The post was for the lens.

Aviation Thread 'Andrews Airshow'

Sep 17, 2025

Attended the Joint Base Andrews Airshow just outside Washington DC last weekend. I'm not sure why management can't seem to get this one right, but it's always a mess. Show was alright, Thunderbirds were.....I dunno, lackluster? Missed the Rhino Demo Team due to the insane line to get in the base, and the F-35 never even bothered to show up. Regardless, got some neat shots, and the kiddo loved it, so onto the photos...
