Black Skimmer flock

This image of a flock of black skimmers was taken last week at Jekyll Island on the Georgia coast.

ISO 500
Matrix metering Exp Comp +1.0

Any suggestions?

I like the idea and BG. The birds could go a bit brighter for my taste and I would prefer if the birds on the ground were not there. You also got some terns there.

Very artistic picture, love the light behind them. At least, you have a clean lower edge, a necessity for successful flock images, according to Maestro Morris.

I like it a lot Eric, ditto what Fabs said.
