The reason I did all this is that when I magnified Rob at 100%, his feathers looked like brush strokes in a painting. I found those textures so fascinating that I decided to find a proper way to share it. I hope youved to the Arizona desert at the end of last year. Soon afterwards a roadrunner couple decided we would be their parents, as it were. I named them Rob and Roberta Roadrunner. We rarely see Roberta, but Rob is in the yard in the morning and afternoon, looking for a meal, which we believe he brings back to Roberta. He will come right up to the door in the backyard, not at all concerned with our two little dogs. At that point Rob walks alongside my wife as they head for the wall in the backyard. That is where meals are expected to take place. It is the funniest sight to see them walking together.
Anyway... I've been experimenting with what is called Super Resolution, done with Photoshop mostly. I don't have a lens to get this close to Rob, so I have used that process to create images that can be printed large, but I am using a telephoto lens so the sharpest area of focus is near the eye and head. I have posted versions in color and black and white because they have distinct perceptual differences. like them.
