Excellent detail and eye contact especially for an in flight shot. On my monitor there looks like there is a little noise in the BG. :)

Arash, love the full wings down pose with excellent lighting, sharpness and exposure. I don't think I would change a thing.

Good Shooting!

I like the wing position, sharpness and eye contact and only wish the tern would fly towards you. Do you have an earlier image in this series?

While many would wish for an up swept wing, I like this presentation as it is different. On my monitor the sharpness is good, but there is a bit of noise.

Love that wing pose Arash. I agree with Axel re: how it is positioned. Still magical image. Thanks for sharing. :)

Hmmmmmm.......

Two comments....

A) A second sooner so that the bird had been coming toward you instead of going buy would have made a stronger image.

B) I'd put the bird just a bit higher in the frame so that even though it's looking downward, it would be looking into the frame a bit more. The wings being extended downward should allow you to do this so that it wouldn't have quite as much of a centered appearance perhaps.

Excellent wing position and great job with exposure, sharp too.
