Wow, no mean feat capturing one of these fast-movers in flight. Great job!

It's a great to se someone being able to photograph these things in flight :toast:. On the other hand, I'm not sure about split background. Especially bright part is screaming out of the monitor. But that aside, I'm still very impressed by your photographic technique.

Cheers,
Marko

A stunning image. The angle of the bird is just right and the attitude of the wings, head and tail couldn't be better. I'm still trying to capture a Tern like this.

Holy mackeral - that is something! Pity about the split in the BG but very impressive none the less

Not keen on the BG but you have done the hard part well and 'nailed' it - very nice!
