Tern shake!

[arash_hazeghi]

This is an elegant tern from SoCal. The terns dive for fish and more often than not they emerge from the water with an empty bill. Then, in a split second they shake off the water and dive again. The shake pose is sometimes crazy with the head rotated almost 180 degrees upside down

Hope you like this frame

Arash when I look at the standard of your work I think I will give up trying to take photographs of birds and take up golf or some other pastime, this really is superb to my eyes, thanks for giving us a look.

Classic! Love the background and the flying droplets. I echo Keith's sentiments. :)

Great moment captured, Arash. The IQ is amazing, so is the pose.

Great shot Arash. I love everything in your frame, nice and soft BG, exact focus, excellent detail on white, amazing IQ, droplets & ...

Awesome detail, really like the water trails coming off the tips of the bills. Not sure I've even seen that in such fine detail before. They have to be fun to shoot!
