Just love these shots of yours with reflections. The light must be great down there.

tout simplement excellent.

Herb, do you have Sandwich Terns in your neck of the woods? We do and they look very similar to these but with black beaks. Excellent shop. I wonder what they are queuing for ?
Guest 24-Sep-2005 15:43
Herb, you did it yet again. Fantastic image.

Absolutely superb Herb!
Karen Leaf22-Sep-2005 01:28
How long do you wait before the majority of your subjects pose so well for you???
The top 2 could be twins. Really outstanding comp and the reflections are the icing on the cake.

Threes always work.

great image with strong composition

Cool reflection
Guest 21-Sep-2005 23:56
nice catch Herb, I like your composition also.
Robin Reid21-Sep-2005 23:36
You have me spinning with these tern jokes. I guess a lot of my twisted humor does revolve around puns that spin folks out of shape. I have a bent view of life, and don’t think I’ll veer in a new direction. All this awful humor aside let me serious:
I :
1: Like the way you caught the one tern out of step with the others.
2: The lighting is great
3: The reflections underline and strengthen the image
4: Cropping to put the terns on the right was an excellent idea.

Is that enough serious comment?
Pat Hemlepp21-Sep-2005 23:35
Nice composition, Herb.
Dave Wyman21-Sep-2005 23:26
Nice photo - I like the composition, Herb.
Di21-Sep-2005 23:22
LOL Herb! Stopped Robin dead in his tracks. Although, I'll bet he comes up with one you haven't thought of. Great lighting and comp on this one.
