Excellent image Corne' - welcome to BPN ;)
I enjoy this image as the two tone background makes the tern truly stand out - the lighting is dramatic yet there are no distracting shadows on the bird!
Indeed a VVWD from me!
See you Kruger Park soon :D

I really like the pose of the bird, the light & background are gorgeous, maybe just a touch more room around the tern. A beautiful image.

If you have it, a little more around the subject would be good. Excellent image. Good work.

Lovely image Corne - a little more room below the bird would be nice. What lens , aperture etc. maybe slighly wider aperture would have smoothed the gradation in the background more. Well managed highlights

If you post photo info and camera equipment, it would make everything more interesting.
