    Default Black Tern Preening

    Another photo of the only day out photographing; a Black Tern. It is funny, but the first time I photograph this species.:-).

    Hi Lorant, excellent low shooting angle, and I like feather detail. Im glad he didnt close his eye whilst preening. If this were mine, I would smoothen out/soften the line that runs across the frame at the bottom of his feet.

    Lovely image of this handsome species. I like how you have centered him, your low angle and that it's preening.

    Excellent low angle shot, Lorant. The bird has nice feather details and I like the preening pose.

    The Angle is really nice.
    I think maybe a bit more room around and in front of the bird would look nice.

    They are a beautiful tern and photograph well. Love the super low angle and the preening pose.
