Common tern

[Alex Becker]

Hi all,

Taken a bit after sunrise on a somewhat overcast AM. Very minimal edits in post, cropped about 25%, NR on the BG. BG is the ocean with a breaking wave as that middle line.

Camera: Nikon D500
Lens: 200-500mm f/5.6 at 500mm
Specs: 1/3200 ISO 560 f/5.6

Thanks for looking and commenting on prior posts!

Hi Alex, great to have one with a fish, just adds to the capture. As you had plenty of ISO I personally would have upped the f/stop to say f/8 for a tad more latitude. Being overcast certainly helped on the whites & overall exposure.

Nice frame Alex. Good incoming flight pose, nice soft light and good BG.Tack sharp and you got the all important catchlight!
Only thing that would have improved it would be for the fish to face our way,
