Conrad, you\'ve had a very productive day here.
Some excellent photos compositionally and exposure-wise.
The BIF shots are getting better and better, especially the fast terns.
One more thing IMO that you\'d still need to polish up a bit is the exposure of those terns......I\'d like to see their eye, and I\'d like to see less cropping. Position yourself closer to their flight/fishing path........400 mm should be plenty long for that. As an example, I got these two images with a 200mm lens. Another benefit of proximity to them is that they will give you the eye contact.
Once you accomplish that with a bit of practice, I am confident you\'ll be able to shot with the best small BIF shooters out there.
