About This is a repost of one of my first images posted on UF. I noticed some dust bunnies on the image and cleaned it up. Added a border, removed noise with noise ninja and cropped.

Let me know what you think. This was shot at dusk, terns were back lit and I used a flash extender to light them up. Made an interesting reflection on their eyes.

Taken at Don Edwards Reserve

What do I think? Absolutely wonderful! A very striking bird image!

I admire people who can get shots like this - I've tried - I dismally failed!

A top notch image!

Cheers

Phil

Thanks Alicia for your comments!

Hi Jinggoy, I really like this scene, being shot at dusk really you really got a nice peaceful look, I like the reflection captured also, almost a abstact version of what we see above..
great capture of the tern stilts :) That book really is very handy, I know I still use mine to this day! Oh I have one critique, I think I said the same to yamil, If you did not title it stilts in flight, I think most could figure it out, LOL just messing with ya..

Jinggoy Montenejo   {K:7627} 7/2/2006

This is a wonderful Image- unique and effective. So warm and beautiful. The reflections and the colours soothing but strong.


Andy Simmons   {K:7704} 7/4/2006
Wonderful shot. Excellent composition. the reflections are perfect. The overall effect, because of the limited range of colors, is of clarity and simplicity. Really effective.


Robert Kocs   {K:89061} 11/9/2006
Very well captured and presented moment, love the
great timing and the great eye catcher composition.
Excellent work and natural compo, love colours and
silhouettes, the reflections are so superb!
Congratulations for this beauty! 7+++++++++++++++++

Have a nice day dear Jinggoy,
Robert
