Arctic Tern

Wow, excellent series of a beautiful bird.

Beautiful images Sindri

Stunning shots Sindri. Excellent exposure as well. I've got to get my Bigma back out!

Wow, wonderful series here. The flight shots are amazing! Only one thing though...there is a halo below the belly and around the bill on both of these flight shots...probably due to slight oversharpening. Man, I can't believe I just nit-picked these but I critiqued them with utmost respect as I know first hand how difficult it is to achieve this type of flight shot.

Very well done!!

I love these images. I'm with dancad on the halo and its causes. But that does not detract from the competence of the capture. It's not easy to get shots like these. Equipment? Sure. Patience? A prerequisite. A steady hand? Indispensable. Very fine work.

I tend to undersharpen, if anything, so am perhaps oversensitive to what I interpret as too much sharpening, because I believe it robs many images of their inherent subtlety.
