wildlife Juvenile Black Skimmer .. Skimming - Click image to view larger!

Thanks for viewing/comments! .. Never had a backlighted Skimmer before

since it's much harder to get the eye shown with backlighted light ...

Tm J,

The larger view is excellent!

I do like the details of the underside of that far wing and, the way they show in the reflection also.

Regards always,

Jim j.

Thanks Jim! This one is probably the best looking one of the bunch for this Juvies Black Skimmer . We are getting 80/90 degree weather this coming weekend and I hope to meet him/her again   :-)

D'une grande beauté, unique par sa simplicité; mais quelle capture !

Merci Beaucoup Pierre! Salutations de la Californie du Sud.

Very cool shot, with the luminous "underlighting" contributing to gorgeous color and definition in details. Beauty, mate!

Thanks Richard!

Suprb shot! still see the catch light with shadow - Well done Tmj :)

Thanks C. Thao!

fantastic !

Thanks Brett!

Very nice image, it is a pity that in my country don't live this bird with this particular way of catching, ciao Giangiorgio

Grazie Mille Giangiorgio! .. Well, my friend, looks like you have to take a trip to SoCal then/jk :-)  .

I am always amaze of the quality of images that you got out of the 300-800mm Sigma, btw.

Amazing shot!  Congratulations!

Thanks K A !

Beautifully captured Tm J! One of the best I've seen! Best regards, Rob

Thanks Robert! Yes, it's a different take of Skimmer shot .. mostly we go for frontlighted but this one is backlighted. I got lucky that day!  :-)
