Foster's tern
Hi all,
Heres a foster's tern taken after sunrise. Pretty minor edits, brought down the brightest highlights a couple points and some tonal adjustments. Cropped about 30%.
Camera: Nikon D500
Lens: 200-500mm f/5.6 at 500mm
Specs: 1/3200 ISO 720 f/7.1
Thanks for looking and commenting on prior posts!

This is pretty darned sweet. I love the soft light, the wing positions, and the sand eel. As the image quality is excellent, I cropped at 3X2 from three sides to move the bird back in the frame. And eliminated a few of the white blobs above the horizon with the Patch Tool.
with love, artie
