    Managed to capture this Sandwich Tern on my local sea shore, during the evening sun.

    Thanks for having a look, and all advice is appreciated.

    Nice one William. Looks like you needed to crop a bit more than ideal but otherwise all good. Cheers, Ian.

    Nice flight pose in good light. Love that little head turn toward you and the nice wing position. I would sharpen the bird a tad more.

    Nice pose and perfect head angle. Wing looks plenty sharp - looks like focus locked there as the face is softer. Surely a bit more sharpening there would work for web presentation.

    You've captured a very nice pose with a perfect HA! As suggested above, I would sharpen the head more.

    Spectacular flight shot with very nice full up wings and HA.I like the details in whites,eye contact and open beak.

    Regards,
