Touch Down( River Tern Fishing )

[Sucheth Lingachar]

Photographed at Bangaluru Outskirts, After trying so many times and spending one and half hour finally got some decent diving shot of this river tern. I was trying.. Trying and trying to get the proper diving shot but since the lens is non VR am not able to focus properly and the River Tern was so fast after so many misses got one decent...

Beautiful. Your efforts paid off. Liked the low angle and the composition. It looks like fighter plane diving :-). You captured the right moment. Thanks for sharing.

Nice diving pose. Shows the aerodynamics. If the nose of our planes could have been flexible and twisted like those of our birds, then it could have made them manoeuverable better.
