    Default Black Tern

    I was pretty happy to get this photo of a Black Tern in flight. I have seen them in the area many times but they were never close enough or low enough to get a decent flight shot.

    Canon 1D Mk 111 / Canon 400 f5.6 / 1/2000th @ f5.6 ISO 500 / handheld / manual exposure

    Nicely done David,
    I like the banking position of the bird and the two tone background...:eek:

    David, This is a bird that is very high on my wish list, and you have photographed him beautifully. LOve the rich, two toned bg, goes well against the black bird.

    Very good David. The bicolored BG is fantastic and the light is really sweet. I have trying to get a decent image of this guys for a long time but no nice results so I am jealous:D
