These are stunning.

Happy New Year.

Aww, fantastic! You can really see the resemblance too... it's those little claws and feet.

Also, noise and cyan fringe? Barely perceptible! Canon are doing a great job with their low-light response - they look so sharp. I am officially Green.

Erm. These have been post-processed a fair bit to reduce the noise, especially the upper one. There's plenty of colour noise in the originals, though the fringing is OK; you can have a shufti when I get back. But it was pretty dim, and I was trying to keep the shutter speed tolerable for hand-held moving targets at maximum zoom. Needless to say, there were many duds.
