    These Juvenile Forster's Terns have nice markings and this was one of the shots that displays it best.

    Fantastic image quality. I like the flight pose and the sharp details. Lovely fanned tail and eye contact.

    Great banking pose, sharpness and eye contact, I also like the water in the BG. If anything, I might tone down the brightest highlights on the neck.

    James, this rocks. Since the BG is not fully blurred and the way lighting is, cool 3D effect is seen. great wing and head position. A winner.

    Anytime you can get a "topside look it is a bonus. This is stunning. Great details in a wonderful setting.

    Wow, you nailed this one James. You could experiment lightening (not eliminating) the darker lines in the water, especially the two near the bill, but still fine as is.

    Nailed James, and just love the full wingspread from the banking angle. Excellent detail and sharpness. Well captured.

    Incredible dorsal view with incredibly sharp feather detail. And a perfect angle to the subject. Was this a VERT ORIG?
