Taken in low light conditions, so requiring an ISO of 1600 to get the high shutter speed. I found the Digital Noise Reduction tool pf Paint Shop Pro 9, to give a less 'plastic' image than Neat Image.

Thank you for your comments Nigel. This is as the camera took it, except for the processing, as stated.
It was very trying, standing in a load of doves trying to track them, they are even worse at composition than I am.
