One from the archives, which I have processed for the bigger image size. I managed 20 frames of this pair of Arctic Terns together, on a light cloud day, Isle of May.
That's a belter Will, you have controlled the exposure beautifully and captured fine detail in the plumage. The shadow on the lower bird does not trouble me at all.
I love the interaction and "over head" view. Although the shadow does not bother me either, I would remove the yellowish cast on it. The sponge tool works well for situations like this.
Love the interaction and the square crop. You needed more clouds as the shadow on the lower bird is both problematic and unavoidable.
with love, artie
