Foster's tern

[Alex Becker]

Hi all,

Heres another foster's tern taken an ~hour or so after sunrise. Warmed the image slightly, brought down some of the brightest highlights. Added some canvas to the right and cloned out an OOF blob behind the bird. Cropped ~20%.

Camera: Nikon D500
Lens: 200-500mm f/5.6 at 500mm
Specs: 1/3200 ISO 450 f/5.6

Thanks for looking and commenting on prior posts!

Hi Alex, great raised near wing, with good detail showing. Well placed in the frame, and his food a bonus.

Very nice wing position and good details in the whites.
I like the line created by the fish and always a real bonus when the fish eye faces the viewers. Also nice to see a good catchlight in the eye.
Tack sharp and a nice BG.
Very nice Alex,
Gail
