These are fast birds Birdie. I deleted a whole bunch, my finger is tired after deleting so many. Thanks for all your great comments.

Thanks so much for your kindly comments Master S. These fews came out okay. I was quite frustrated the day I shot these Terns. I could hardly keep up and stay in focus with the subjects.

I don't know about the throw-aways, Khai, but these are really excellent keepers.
#7 looks a bit soft on my monitor- but the others are super sharp.
Nice work.
Charlie


Awesome that you have stopped by Charlie. I deleted more than 90% of the takes, most of them are out of focus, clipped wings, clipped head, etc. Yes, #7 is soft, I try to salvage it, but you saw right through.

Impressive set Khai, I like a lot about the whole series. A great expression of form and action. Gosh these are beautiful my friend and #3 is sweeeeeeet!

In looking close at the last one it appears there is maybe a hook or something snagged into its neck underneath just below where the black ends on top its head?? Thought it was water at first but

Fantastic work and great presentation!

Thank you so much Karl for the visit and taking your precious time to comment on the post. Wow! You are seeing so well! I did not notice the "earring" piece that the bird was wearing until you mentioned it. I thought it was just one of those water spray, but you are right. It does look like a metal piece got stuck with the bird. It does not look too serious though, I hope soon enough, I bird will pick it out ...
