Jens Birch Arctic Terns Arctic Terns (Sterna paradisaea)

Here is one of my favorite pictures from my recent trip to Iceland.
These Arctic terns have a large colony very close to this almost sweet water lagoon where Europe's largest glacier Vattnaj?kull continously produces icebergs. There seems to be an abundance of fish as you can see. The terns gather in large flocks to feed in the near 0 ?C water. This is just a fraction of the flock isolated by the narrow field of view at 200 mm focal length. A pity though that the close out-of-focus tern came into the field just as I triggered the shutter. (Handheld at 1/400 sec, f/6.3, and ISO100 using a a polarizing filter.)

Christopher Manison Are we there yet ?

It just struck me as amusing ... 3 Moor hens hiking across a frozen lake.

duncan mackie Are you food?

I am interested in opinions as to whether this works, specifically the dof and focus plane.

Part of me says the eyes should be in focus, because there are in shot!, and part of me likes the impact of the beak - figuratively speaking.

Ian Reed Are you looking at me ?

I suddenly had a feeling that I was being watched. This was taken on a farm on Anglesey North Wales.

Phil Battersby Are YOU watching ME

Third in my bird self portraits. Bird looks aggressive but I'm sure it is only curiosity.
