A small flock of Black Skimmers visit a private beach in Pompano for a few months
and I always try to take advantage of it when I can!

Nice looking flight shot -- I like the detail on the gull especially feathers on the near wing.

[Axel Hildebrandt]

I like the banking pose, sharpness and BG and wish the bird were angled a bit toward you. I would also tone down the whites more.

[Judy Lynn Malloch]

Excellent timing Michael and I love the banking pose with the fanned tail. Many thanks for sharing.

[Kurt Bowman]

Nice shot...I like this as posted. Like Judy, I also like the banking shot. It might be my monitor, but the whites look fine to me.

[Morkel Erasmus]

agree on the whites but love the diagonal wingspan and the OOF surf in the BG...overall well exposed and sharp
