Royal Tern

[Geoffrey Montagu]

Captured this image at sunset on Bowman's beach, Fl. a couple of weeks ago. A lifer for me. C&C welcome.

D4S, Nikon 500mm f/G4 + 1.4 TC, 1/1600s, f 6.3, Gitzo tripod, Wimberley Gimbal head.

Nice light and good exposure on this handsome tern. (Congratulations on the lifer.) I love the preening fluff on his bill.

Agree you have nice light and perfect florida beach background. Bird looks good despite being off the sun angle. I would prefer the bird being more parallel to the camera and not facing away so much. Congrats on the lifer.

Thanks Bill and Isaac.
