Hi Thornton!
Very good composition with these birds and the wave. The movement is perfect, we can almost feel the wave. Good colours and sharpness!

Yup, that is a great shot.
I know by experience that these flying beasts are not so easy to catch: I spent a whole afternoon on Herradura beach only to get 2-3 decent shots (+ totaly sore forearms).

hello Thornton,
Very dynamic shot!
Well done. Great colour and detail. The waves seem so real.
TFS, Joni
