Out of interest, is the green under its chin a result of trying to get light/histogram levels correct, or was it really “there”. I often have trouble with over-exposed areas picking up a green or blue tinge when corrected.

It’s actually really there in the sense that the grass the goose is standing on is very green and reflected off their chin! :)

I wondered the same for a second when I went through the pictures at home.

Thanks. What’s worse, is that I lost quite a few attempts to this problem today: white gulls and the like, against dark backgrounds. Trying to remove over-exposure just leaves a vivid green discolouration,

Huh, interesting. I wonder where the difference is coming from. You use a Canon, right? Maybe that plays a role? But surely that would be more an issue of raw data interpretation… Do you have any examples easily on hand?

I don’t think it’d be an issue of sea birds, would it? Blue seas would tint things blue and, if (over-)corrected, orange, I’d assume…
