Spectacular image. Very nice pose with very nice HA, beautiful wing position and artistic fanned tail feathers.
Love the way you have placed the bird in elegant habitat. Of course fish is bonus and superb composition.

Regards,
Satish.

Hi Mike, I like this, as its different from the norm that we have a Tern against a foliage BG, and not a water BG. Cool wing pose, and the catch a bonus. Whites look good, but I would maybe add a touch of contrast.
