Thanks Geoff, I didn't have too many options with my shooting angle and the direction of the sunlight, so made the best of the situation, glad you enjoyed.

Hi Geoff,
Did you use HDR or something as the tones look odd to me. The second is a beauty
Morris
Thanks Morris, as far as HDR, none of that. I just dropped the overall exposure and pushed some shadow details in post, that's why you get that look, the directional light of the sun along with black birds and a dark background made for interesting contrast and exposures hence the look. I have also noticed that our skimmers here in Trinidad are mostly migrants and they are not in the best of shape "Plumage and Color wise" compared to yours in the US where they breed.
