Great shot Stan, with very good timing and composition.

The Terns are one the most agile aerialists and +1 as George says including that you have the sea in the bg.

NB I saw the way the Arctic Terns flew on a visit to the Farnes, and there you need a good hat to protect from them diving at you and pecking you on the head! (There is one such on 500px but I clipped the wing of one of the combatants )

Cheers Guys

we went last year and wore hats but had no trouble with them at all. Going again next week but will still wear a hat just in case
