Bluejays are very shy by the way,
I think David Brooks figured out that they lose that shyness if you
properly bribe them...

Sometimes your exposure is set for a normal shot, but then something very
abnormal comes your way. Like a bird in shadow against a white sky. With
digital, you can just fire away and change the exposure in poet without any
observable loss of quality. This was shot at ISO 250, f9, 1/800th, which was
just right for birds fully lit in a neutral setting. This guy was high up in a
tree, shaded and against a white sky. I pulled the trigger and added 3.25 stops
of exposure in post, making it approximately ISO 2200. Some contrast and
saturation adjustment and then a levels correction, and we were in business.
Bluejays are very shy by the way, so I don’t pass one up even in a tough
situation.
