Terns seem to be quite popular right now. I made this at Nickerson Beach while the light was a bit low because of high clouds. Fortunately, it was sharp despite the relatively low shutter speed. I think the blacks are a bit darker than in the previous one.

Amazing detail and I love the blacker BLACKS. I wish only that the head were on straighter.
