    Default Sandwich Tern

    Here is another bird I photographed last March in Fort Myers.
    The sun went behind the clouds at the moment I took the shot and I didn't compensate the exposure adequately, resulting in about 0.7 stop underexposure.
    This is about 70% of FF. I removed a small out-of-focus shell from behind the bird and the tip of another bird's tail on the right side of the frame.

    The low angle, the calm BG, the HA and the exposure on the whites take this shot to a different level. superb.

    Luis, the overcast conditions has resulted in lovely soft light. I do like the exposure, and overall nice and sharp.
