Darktable 3.9.0~git24.477bc5c41a-1
Tried a bit tighter crop. Originally I thought I’d make it B/W but making the dark guy stand out more was way too hard. 
EDIT: Fixed blown out highlights.
Very nice. I would add a little more headroom (a little above and in front, personally).
Great picture, they look like great companions. I tried to keep the under shade look going and not overcook it a lot. Still unsure of the crop though.
These nikon files are really easy to work with, and the optical quality of that lens seems to be pretty good. Doing all these play raws makes me consider my fujifilm choices
If only Nikon Z had some cheap telephotos.
