Took this image a year ago and just processed this one. Lots of landings this day, but I liked the patina on this particular perch. Ccloned out part of a cormorant llc.

I like this tern and the great colors but I'm not a fan of the center post, despite it being a nice weathered one! Maybe a version that is cropped from the bottom without the perch and more space to let the wings have room. Love those wing tips!
Really nice pose, Robert. I like the clouds (?) over the water in the BG. They add a nice depth to the image.
I also like seeing the water at the bottom - and because of that I wouldn't crop from the bottom. Lovely details.
Very nice.
I would like a bit more room for the wing tips as well.
I like the crashing waves in the NG.
Post is OK- not a deal breaker for me and it gives context to the image and shows us the bird is clearly landing on something.
