Inspired by Cheryl's beautiful Royal tern couple of a couple days ago, I went to my files to look at some royals that I photographed in April at Ft DeSoto. I like the pose of this bird so processed it to share with you.
Thank you for looking and as always, for your comments. I learn from each and every one.

Grace, that's a great portrait of a Royal Tern. Not sure how it could be better? Great pose, perfect HA, Killer exposure on both sides, nice low POV and a beautiful blue ocean BG with a smooth bokeh. It's a no brainer, Print It !! :w3
Simple, elegant and beautifully done.
Nice HA, pose, low angle, and exposure. Love the clean background as well. I thought may be just a tiny little bit of room at the bottom would be nice.
Just enough beach on the bottom, excellent exposure on the bird and BG is great.

Grace:
Lovely capture, high IQ, well exposed, nice pose, enough variation in the bg to provide some sense of depth. I do agree about a sliver more room below, or a small crop off the top to balance it.
Cheers

This is a great portrait. Pose, HA, light, sharpness, exposure everything is perfect. TFS
nice, simple shot here Grace. Everything is working for me.
Nice one , great details and nice pose all very well balanced
Ticks the techs well I think...and a great stately posture by the bird as well, simply lovely !
Lovely image.
Perfect in every way.
Well done.
Beautiful. Great light and colors, a background that is a perfect match for the tern, great head angle and perfect sharpness.
